Introducing TorchNeuron, a new open-source tool that lets developers take their PyTorch code and run it on @awscloud Trainium chips, no rewrite required.
85% of AI researchers and developers write their code in PyTorch, and now, with TorchNeuron, the tools developers already use to test, debug, and scale their models all work on Trainium without modification. Teams building everything from voice AI to drug-discovery models are already using it. ⬇️

More personalization for fans everywhere. Had a chance to sit down with the @NBA and @CNBC on the future of AI in sports and the league. @awscloud is excited to be the official cloud and AI partner of the league.

AWS SVP and CFO John Felton spoke with @FortuneMagazine's Sheryl Estrada about how AI adoption is shifting from productivity gains to rethinking what the business can do. One example from inside AWS: the pricing team turned an 18-tab Excel model into a chatbot for evaluating customer deals through natural language. go.aws/3Ufwmfm

Sat down with @BradPorter_ for the latest episode of Deployed. We talked about what separates the organizations getting real value from AI agents from the ones still figuring it out, and why the biggest bottleneck right now isn't the technology. The teams pulling ahead aren't always better tools, they've changed how they operate. Thanks for having me on ➡️ piped.video/6DYILVjDKFc?si=WQx5…

Love the Prime Day stats - some mind boggling numbers there !!

AI needs 2-3x more networking bandwidth. @awscloud has doubled network capacity in three years and will double again by 2027. A lot of the work to make that possible starts in the Network Product Development lab: aboutamazon.com/stories/insi…

300 sensors per car. 24 races. Zero margin for error.
AWS & @f1 built an agentic AI solution that resolves critical issues up to 86% faster, so engineers focus on the future, not the logs.
