Amazon Web Services announced a $100M investment in the AWS Generative AI Innovation Center, a program linking AI experts with customers and partners to spur generative AI development on the cloud platform. Participants will have access to free workshops, training, and AWS products like CodeWhisperer and Bedrock. The center is not a physical location but rather a program offering no-cost assistance to customers. - According to AWS, the center will help customers develop use cases aligned with their business values, create proof-of-concept solutions, and scale them for production.
- Highspot, a sales software company, is among the first clients. Initially, the program will prioritize customers who have expressed interest in generative AI, particularly in areas like finance, healthcare, media, and automotive.
- AWS CEO Adam Selipsky said the goal is to help customers move beyond the conceptual stage and accelerate their generative AI efforts.
- Other companies, including Salesforce, Workday, OpenAI, and Dropbox, have also invested significant funds in generative AI technologies.
