Amazon Goes Big on Agentic AI
AWS is setting up its own in-house agentic AI team, positioning itself as a leader in this emerging field, which has the potential to be a "multi-billion business" for the company. The new initiative aims to help customers innovate faster and unlock more possibilities through the use of artificial intelligence agents. As one example, the recently previewed Alexa+ voice assistant demonstrates agentic capabilities that will soon be available to consumers.
