Hauk tau hais tias Amazon kuj tseem tuaj yeem sau cov ntaub ntawv tus neeg siv ntxiv los ntawm cov yam ntxwv tshiab, uas tuaj yeem ua rau cov tswv tsev nce nqi pov hwm yog tias lawv lub tuam txhab pov hwm tau nkag mus rau cov ntaub ntawv ntawm cov xwm txheej hauv tsev.

Kuv muaj ntau tus neeg hais lus ntse hauv kuv lub tsev uas ib tus tub sab yuav zaum dhau ib qho. Yog li, kuv tsis paub meej tias kuv xav tau Alexa los ua lub tswb nrov. Tab sis, piv txwv li, rau cov neeg laus cov txheeb ze, muaj peev xwm hu rau kev pab los ntawm Amazon lub ecosystem tej zaum yuav yog ib qho kev xaiv txaus nyiam.
