what is the name of the amazon echo?
echo
work on the amazon echo began in 2011, known as "project d". it was named this because the kindle was project a and the fire phone was project b. the amazon echo was an offshoot of project c. project c is unknown, even though work on it has stopped. the amazon echo was originally supposed to be called the amazon flash. the wake word, the word that makes the device responsive, for the echo used to be "amazon". both of these attributes were disliked by lab126, the division of amazon that conducts research and development and creates computer hardware. lab126 believed that "amazon" is too much of a commonly used word, and the device would react when it was not intended to. jeff bezos, the ceo of amazon, ended up being influenced by lab126 to change the name of the device to the amazon echo and the wake word to "alexa". the amazon echo was originally pitched as only a smart speaker, it was not originally intended to be a smart home hub, like it is now, until after it hit the market. as alexa, the artificial intelligence (a.i.) that powers the amazon echo, improved, the device became more of a controlling center for smart home appliances. dave isbitski, the chief developer evangelist for the echo and alexa, received calls from smart home manufacturers to discuss connecting their devices, after the release of the amazon echo. smart home devices had a problem, people were not buying smart home devices because they often required an extra app in order to be used which was not much better than just using the device manually. this discouraged many customers from buying smart home devices. the current vision for the echo is for it to be the controlling hub of a smart home.
