Yesterday, we reported that Amazon and Microsoft’s year-long smart assistant partnership was finally bearing fruit. The two companies have worked together to bring their Cortana and Alexa virtual assistants to each other’s devices.
Windows 10-powered PCs, for example, let users access Alexa, and Cortana can be called from any Echo device. This partnership doesn’t seem to benefit users in any meaningful way, though – Alexa can already answer virtually any question Cortana can and vice versa.
