Google and Amazon's focus in their backend technologies has been radically different.
Google has been on finding relevant information, Amazon's has been on serving content to consumers.
Alexa will get smarter, taking advantage of the AI developments of Google and others, if Amazon believes it's customers want that, and that it will enhance their business.
(We're in the middle of a revolution in this kind of AI....)
In the meantime, I'd rather deal with Amazon's customer support than Google's.
