The State of Smart Speakers and Digital Assistants, Post-CES and MWC 2018February 27, 2018The 2018 CES tradeshow was dominated by common themes revolving around AI, such as machine learning, voice interfaces, and digital assistants. Building upon the AI-first focus of CES, Apple’s HomePod launch, and Google’s increased aggression in language support for Google Assistant just announced at Mobile World Congress 2018, competition within the market for smart speakers and related digital assistants has now truly begun escalating sharply. IHS Markit expects annual shipments of smart speakers to grow steadily from 32 million units in 2017 to 47 million in 2018, reaching 85 million in 2021. This is only a fraction of the more than 5 billion consumer devices supporting digital assistants in use by the end of 2018, with nearly 3 billion more added by the end of 2021.Subscribers Only

Introduced in 2014 and first making a prominent appearance at IBC in 2015, Android TV was formerly seen as both OTT-centric as well as operator-unfriendly in regards to Google’s control over the user interface and experience. Additionally, two years ago, the specter of security concerns at both the hardware and OS level remained. This year, it was clear that many concerns have been addressed and Android TV is gaining considerable momentum within the pay-TV sector.Subscribers Only
