Awesome Tips Disney is Taking Over Your Home Assistant (‘Hey Disney’ Hands-On)
CNET’s Bridget Carey tests Disney’s new voice assistant and learns how it will work at home alongside Amazon Alexa on Echo devices. ‘Hey Disney’ will be coming later this year to let characters chime in on weather, alarms, trivia — and it includes a number of new “soundscapes” to put you in a Disney vibe. Disney is the first company to make its own voice assistant to co-exist with Alexa.

Deals for Days. Big home savings are happening now.
Love it!!!
Ugh. Uber gimmicky. Predict crash and burn. Alexa just want you to buy stuff.
dont need woke Disney trying to influence my kids with agenda
While Disney has the Reimagine Tomorrow policy its banned from my house
I bet it can summon demons right into your kids bedroom too!
Nope, Home Assistant is my home assistant.
Hey Disney, can you get me tickets to Universal Studios?
My Wife and I both grew up in Maitland and went to Disney World when we were young. It's a shame Disney is no longer Family oriented. We more or less boycott Disney movies, parks, and TV. Personally, I hope they go bankrupt.
wokest tech i ever met about woke tech is a dark age
Will it be woke tho? 🐭
It's funny that Minnie called Mickey once you said Goodnight to it. She called for a bootycall! 🤣
Apple really missed out with this one
Let’s see if B Iger can turn Disney from Woke to great again before I do anything Disney!
Why isn't it Mickey or Minnie ? I'd love to say hey Mickey tell me what is Minnie thinking about the weather today and they'd read the weather between themselves in a very funny lengthy way that would get childred intersted in well … the weather.
They Should have gotta Corey Burton to do the voice, his voice is the Disney parks voice and he did a lot of the Disney home video narration in the 90s.
Disney is gross and dangerous for children. No way.
No worries, keep saying Alexa. What ghetto household has Alexa as their voice assistant? Because she was damn near FREE from buying $5 Echo Dots 🙄
No grooming allowed in this household.
Out out out
Tell em to GGF!
But can it answer questions about non-Euclidian geometry like GPT-3?
I expected it to be a girl
Don't have "smart assistants" in your home or on your devices.
Disney assistant? That is disturbing.
Why not use Mickey??? “Hey Mickey”
Disney trash
Its cool, disney rarely keeps up with new technologies though. They'll release something cool but then they will leave it on the vine to die. Imma give it 2 years to bake
oh no no no. Pedo Central. They ruined Marvel. They ruined Star Wars. They ruined their own brand. They bailed out Balenciaga. This gotta stop.
I'm surprised Disney didn't use Grogu "baby Yoda" for it.
No privacy concerns here.
Lol no. They won't be brainwashing anybody in my house
I miss my Halo Ghost working with my Alexa. They abandoned it so quickly >:(
it's disgraceful for human persons to converse with trinkets
Love CNET ❤️
No thank you. They'd just know more about me because I am sure Amazon and Disney share everything. These people complaining about woke Disney. I don't feel the same as them, Disney's woke problem is story problems. not that they want to show a world that has different types of people. The world has different people get over it.
"Hey Disney. Why are you so expensive?" " I'm sorry I didn't get that."
I bet a lot of comments were censored for this product. I would not want a woke Disney product in my home.
Disney is not taking over… Alexa has dominated as shown that Disney is pigging back on Alexa
That's cool that Disney and Amazon are teaming up to do this. And it is in the hotels at Disney World.
Who's in charge of reedy Creek?
No, thank you.
Hide your children!!! Pedo groomers are coming for them!
Imagine your disney assistant telling you your household isnt diverse enough. Or that youre not inclusive enough.
I thought Disney would sound more like Mickey! But it’s cool they do have some voices occasionally.
No
