Yahoo Finance Amazon (AMZN) Boosts Generative AI Efforts With New Program
Amazon AMZN is leaving no stone unturned to bolster its generative AI capabilities on the back of its cloud computing arm, Amazon Web Services (AWS).
The latest introduction of the AWS Generative AI Innovation Center program is a testament to the same.
The new program helps connect customers across the world with AWS’ AI and machine learning (ML) experts in order to aid them in building and deploying generative AI solutions seamlessly.
Moreover, customers will get step-by-step guidance from AWS and the AWS Partner Network in picking the right models, defining paths to navigate technical or business challenges, developing proofs of concepts and making plans for launching solutions at scale.
Additionally, the AWS Generative AI Innovation Center will help customers use generative AI services such as Amazon CodeWhisperer, Amazon Bedrock and Amazon Titan, among others.
AWS is investing $100 million in the program, which bodes well for Amazon’s strategy to bring generative AI technology to customers globally.

Competitive Scenario
Amazon’s growing generative AI efforts are likely to stiffen competition for its peers – Alphabet’s GOOGL Google, Microsoft MSFT and Baidu BIDU, to name a few, which are also making concerted efforts toward bolstering their generative AI offerings.
Microsoft recently integrated OpenAI’s next-generation LLM — GPT-4 — into its search engine Bing and browser Edge to deliver a ChatGPT-like experience to users.
Further, Microsoft Azure offers Azure OpenAI Service, which enables the seamless application of Large Language Models (LLM) and generative AI techniques in various use cases.
Meanwhile, Google, which forayed at the beginning of this year by unveiling its chatbot Bard, recently rolled out consulting services to bolster generative AI efforts. The new offerings include advice and tools through which Google Cloud strives to aid clients in adopting generative AI techniques.
Moreover, these tools are designed to help customers boost automation in their business operations by generating content and summarizing information with the power of AI.
Additionally, Baidu continues to progress well with its generative AI chatbot — Ernie Bot — which is capable of solving mathematical queries, responding to questions regarding Chinese literature and generating images and videos. It is also capable of generating audio in different Chinese dialects. Further, the company intends to integrate Ernie Bot into its search service.
