There's scarcely a part of Amazon that is unaffected by AI, according to Vishal Sharma, Amazon's VP of Artificial General Intelligence.
Amazon is deploying AI, including its own foundational models, across various areas such as cloud computing, robotics in warehouses, and the Alexa consumer product.
Sharma believes that the amount of compute resources needed for AI is unlikely to reduce due to smaller, open-source models, as different scenarios require more intelligence.
While Amazon is open to adopting new trends and technologies, Sharma doesn't see the company under pressure from open-source models from China.
