Reasoning models can generate seven to 10 times as many tokens as necessary on simple tasks, creating unsustainable costs at scale. Amazon's vision for metacognitive AI could fundamentally shift how models allocate computational resources.
Amazon's competitive-agent architecture creates a continuous improvement cycle that develops security protections at machine speed, reducing what typically takes weeks down to hours.
A new approach to reducing carbon emissions reveals previously hidden emission “hotspots” within value chains, helping organizations make more detailed and dynamic decisions about their future carbon footprints.
How agentic systems work under the hood — and how AWS’s new AgentCore framework implements their essential components.

EACL 20232023Open domain conversational agents can answer a broad range of targeted queries. However, the sequential nature of interaction with these systems makes knowledge exploration a lengthy task which burdens the user with asking a chain of well phrased questions. In this paper, we present a retrieval based system and associated dataset for predicting the next questions that the user might have. Such a system

EACL 20232023A novel feature represents a cluster of semantically equivalent novel user requests e.g., requests to play a song on a service or reading user’s messages. Detecting and supporting novel features is crucial towards wider adoption of dialog systems by end users. Intuitively, features are represented by a combination of intents, slot types and/or their values. For example, while playing a song is a feature

EACL 20232023Pre-trained neural masked language models are often used for predicting a replacement token for a given sequence position, in a cloze-like task. However, this usage is restricted to predicting a single token, from a relatively small pre-trained vocabulary. Recent Sequence2Sequence pre-trained LMs like T5 do allow predicting multi-token completions, but are more expensive to train and run. We show that pre-trained

EACL 20232023For extreme multi-label classification (XMC), existing classification-based models poorly perform for tail labels and often ignore the semantic relations among labels, like treating “Wikipedia” and “Wiki” as independent and separate labels. In this paper, we cast XMC as a generation task (XLGen), where we benefit from pre-trained text-to-text models. However, generating labels from the extremely large label

EACL 20232023Collecting high quality conversational data can be very expensive for most applications and infeasible for others due to privacy, ethical, or similar concerns. A promising direction to tackle this problem is to generate synthetic dialogues by prompting large language models. In this work, we use a small set of expert-written conversations as in-context examples to synthesize a social conversation dataset
