Amazon’s new generative AI capabilities work to increase access to AI

The team at amazon today announced Amazon Bedrock, a service intended to help organizations build and scale generative AI applications. With this release, users gain access to foundation models (FM) from AI startup model providers such as AI21, Anthropic, and Sustainability AI.

Amazon Bedrock opens up several FMs from different providers so that AWS customers have the flexibility to choose which model would work best for their specific needs. 

This release helps users speed up the development of generative AI applications using FMs through an API, without the need to manage infrastructure. These FMs can also be privately customized using data from the user’s own organization.

Amazon Bedrock also allows customers to use AWS tools and features that they are already familiar with in order to deploy scalable and secure generative AI applications. 

Additionally, AWS announced the general availability of Amazon EC2 Inf2 instances. This release is powered by AWS Inferentia2 chips, which is intended to lower the overall cost of running generative AI workloads.

According to the company, this release also increases energy efficiency, which helps to make generative AI technology more accessible to a wider range of customers. 

Next, the new Trn1n instances run on AWS’s custom Trainium chips, and provide users with enhanced networking capabilities. This helps organizations as they work to train their generative AI models in a quick and inexpensive way. 

Lastly, AWS is offering individual developers free access to Amazon CodeWhisper in order to provide them with real-time coding assistance. 

Amazon CodeWhisper, uses generative AI under the hood so that it can provide users with code suggestions based on their comments and prior code in real-time.

2022: The year of hybrid work

Remote work was once considered a luxury to many, but in 2020, it became a necessity for a large portion of the workforce, as the scary and unknown COVID-19 virus sickened and even took the lives of so many people around the world.  Some workers were able to thrive in a remote setting, while others felt isolated and struggled to keep up a balance between their work and home lives. Last year saw the availability of life-saving vaccines, so companies were able to start having the conversation about what to do next. Should they keep everyone remote? Should they go back to working in the office full time? Or should they do something in between? Enter hybrid work, which offers a mix of the two. A Fall 2021 study conducted by Google revealed that over 75% of survey respondents expect hybrid work to become a standard practice within their organization within the next three years.  Thus, two years after the world abruptly shifted to widespread adoption of remote work, we are dec...
