Basketball player Stephen Curry has long collaborated with Google, and last year took on the role of "Performance Advisor" at the company as part of a multi-year partnership. It appears the first product of this union is "coming soon," based on a video posted to Curry's Instagram account. The 15-second clip shows shots of Curry playing with a basketball, and a gray-and-orange band sits conspicuously on his left wrist. Interspersed are the words "A new relationship with your health coming soon," and the video ends on the Google logo.
We reached out to Google for comment and details, and the company said "Our Performance Advisor has been working with the team to cook up something special ??. More to share soon."

Amazon announced that it is adding new capabilities for ordering food delivery with its Alexa artificial intelligence assistant. Users will be able to place orders using natural language on Alexa through the GrubHub or Uber Eats platforms, provided they have an Amazon device with a large screen. First, you'll need to connect an account for those delivery services to use the feature. You can ask to see restaurants with a specific cuisine or tell the assistant to go right to a favorite spot. Once you start an order, Alexa will also support natural language requests and, if you ask for something generic, the assistant will match it to the most similar item on the menu. It should also support more detailed queries like "what are kid-friendly options?" and be able to submit special requests like "no onions."
To start, this ordering capability will be available for Alexa customers using the Echo Show 8 or larger devices. The screen should reflect your order, with any changes shown in real time. Amazon made the Alexa subscription available to all US customers earlier this year.
