2016-09-13
I'm not gonna lie I've talked to my appliances before but we're here today at a GE kitchen to find out what happens when your appliances actually listen to you Alexa tell Geneva to set the oven for 350 degrees I've set your oven to bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit Amazon and GE have created a new skill set called Geneva which lets you control GE connected appliances using Amazon Alexa with this new skill set you can ask Amazon Alexa through an Amazon device like an echo or a tap to ask Geneva to do things like preheat your oven or get the oven ready for cookies or even prepare coffee on your Keurig connected GE refrigerator now if you already have GE connected appliances in an Amazon Alexa device like an echo you can go ahead and get started with Geneva today all you have to do is go to the Amazon skills store and enable the Geneva skill set this bill set is very promising for the future of the smart kitchen one thing we've really wanted to see here at CNET appliances and what the CNET smart home is more voice control so to have Amazon Alexa be able to help out with that is really huge especially when you consider all the things Amazon Alexa can already do we're excited to see where this partnership leads especially if other brands get involved
