What is a skill in the Amazon Alexa world....


Alexa has over 15,000 "skills" -- Amazon's term for all the voice-controlled applets and services that make the assistant more than just a friendly voice in a tube. I've asked Alexa to order a pizza (and canceled because she doesn't support good pizza places) and then played a streamlined version of Jeopardy.


by definition thet are Voice apps. 10s of thousands of them.
The opposite would be- No listening, no skills.





That is why QUIK does NOT have to evangelize anything, as we have seen in the evolution of devices-( that early compute intense algo- ;-). They just have to fill ALL the time slots at CES and build that pipeline.

   You can also use the headphones to access Google Assistant voice apps. Like Alexa skills, these voice apps extend the range of things you can accomplish with the AI assistant, whether you want to get DIY instructions on how to survive an ostrich attack from WikiHow, hear daily Bible scripture, or order your favorite meal from Panera. Google’s third-party voice app ecosystem is perhaps second only to Amazon, but it has a lot of ground to make up on Alexa, as there are hundreds of Google Assistant voice apps today and tens of thousands of Alexa skills.
