Alexa+ gets a new ‘adults only’ personality option that curses but won’t get into NSFW content
Summary
Amazon is expanding the personality options for its Alexa+ AI assistant with a new “Sassy” mode designed for adult users. This personality utilizes explicit language and delivers responses with a witty, often critical tone, as it aims to “help first, judge always.” Users must complete additional security checks, like a Face ID scan on iOS, to enable this feature, and it’s disabled when Amazon Kids is active. While described as having “mature subject matter,” Amazon clarifies that the Sassy personality will not engage in explicit sexual content, hate speech, or harmful activities. This move reflects a broader trend in AI towards more customizable and personalized assistant experiences, allowing users to choose a tone and style that suits their preferences.
