Facebook is working to develop a voice assistant to rival the likes of Amazon.com Inc’s Alexa, Apple’s Siri and Alphabet’s Google Assistant.
«We are working to develop voice and AI assistant technologies that may work across our family of AR/VR products including Portal, Oculus and future products,» a Facebook spokesperson told Reuters in an e-mailed response.
Earlier in the day, CNBC reported about the development, saying that the team behind the technology has been contacting vendors in the smart speaker supply chain.
