You can now tell Roomba to start cleaning your house via Alexa. Neato also now has that capability.

I don't know if people have noticed this, but far more products are now Alexa compatible than Google Home. While some devices are gaining Google Home compatibility, the number of Alexa compatible devices are growing much faster than Google Home. And then there's Apple. Only a few products are compatible with Home Kit. And since HomePod hasn't even been released, the number of compatible devices right now is zero. Shame on Apple. They had Siri for years and never thought to build it out. Amazon was not even a contender in the AI or natural language processing (NLP) business.
