Trying hard not to be a pimp, but this new feature is pretty cool...

Fire TV’s new AI feature lets you jump to scenes 

by describing them to Alexa+...

 

When we finally cut the string and got rid of DirecTV, I had to get something that would let us watch TV in the bedroom - the one in the living room has WiFi. I bought a Fire Stick for under $ 50.00 or so and plugged it in. I was kinda shocked to find out how much shit you actually do get for nothing - above and beyond the Prime stuff. The learning curve isn't that hard, and I do like having the Alexa voice feature on the remote.

Now there's this - Amazon announced Wednesday that it’s introducing a new AI-powered Fire TV feature that lets viewers jump to specific movie scenes on Prime Video simply by describing them to Alexa+.

“Our number one mission at Fire TV is getting you to what you want to watch—fast,” Amazon wrote in a blog post. “Today’s launch builds on that mission with this new AI-powered feature. Just describe a movie scene like you would to a friend, and Alexa+ will jump directly to that specific moment—no more searching required.”

 

Amazon says you can describe the scene to Alexa by mentioning details like the actor or character’s name, or a memorable quote. "Play it, Sam..."
