" I just want something that is reliable, that works... and I don't have to think about it."

Assuming you buy a good brand, cars are pretty close to being this already - and 'autonomy' isn't where they are lacking in that...
So 'autonomy' isn't going to solve most the issues he's referring to...so, just another self-promotion misdirect.

So...Samsung's innovative technologies can incinerate both phones and cash...

Can't wait to head down to the Chevy dealership to pick up my new Benz...
They'll have to sell 'em...won't they???

"Those were the days my friend 
We thought they'd never end 
We'd sing and dance forever and a day 
We'd live the life we choose 
We'd fight and never lose 
For we were young and sure to have our way..."

Amazon echo is over rated.  I think it will fade in time.
Amazon people who have never used voice assistance will be impressed for a while with Alexa.
Time will tell.

I've also had an Amazon Echo since it first came out. I was quite lucky with their lottery and got the very first shipment of the Echo. I was impressed then and I still am today.

I, too, was lucky in their lottery...
but while waiting for shipping to begin, it occurred to me that I really had no use for it.  (That's just me, I know.)
I immediately gave it away as a wedding present to a niece, and I've never regretted it.
She & spouse seem to mostly use it to astound and confound the older generation in the family,
by "mysteriously" playing music and "magically" adjusting the volume...(ooo-OOO-ooooo..)
so I guess it's a good thing the prices have dropped precipitously
