Panel 1

Alex, sitting in the driver's seat of a car with CarPlay screen visible, smiles and types on a phone. Sam, in the passenger seat, looks at his watch and sighs.

Alex: If only I could use Alexa with CarPlay, my driving experience would be perfect!

Panel 2

The CarPlay screen shows multiple chatbot icons: Siri, Google Assistant, and a new one labeled Robin, standing outside the car with a confused look, waves.

The CarPlay: Alexa.

Robin: Hey, did you know you can use Alexa in the car now? How's that working?

Panel 3

Alex, still smiling, looks at Robin through the window. Sam, looking exasperated, rolls his eyes.

Alex: It’s amazing! I can now ask Alexa to play my favorite songs and navigate without touching my phone!

Sam: Because everything needs to be more complicated than it already is.
