Amazon Look is Discontinued

Smart speaker blog voicebot.ai is reporting that Amazon is discontinuing the Echo Look device.

The Echo Look was an Alexa-enabled smart speaker for fashion advice. Users could stand a few feet away and say, “Alexa, how do I look,” and it would snap a full-length photo capturing your entire attire. Then Amazon’s virtual fashion consultant “Style Check” would kick in and users could review their photos and feedback in the dedicated Echo Look app. It would recommend clothing options that could be purchased that match the users wardrobe. 

Echo Look's functionality is being incorporated into the Amazon Shopping app.

While its great that the AI feature is now going to be available to everyone, pity the people who bought the device and trained it on behalf of the company. Bezos gets to profit some more.
