A family of four foundation models designed to meet diverse enterprise needs across reasoning, multimodal processing, and real-time conversational AI.
How agentic systems work under the hood — and how AWS’s new AgentCore framework implements their essential components.
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.

NAACL 20222022Inference tasks such as answer sentence selection (AS2) or fact verification are typically solved by fine-tuning transformer-based models as individual sentence-pair classifiers. Recent studies show that these tasks benefit from modeling dependencies across multiple candidate sentences jointly. In this paper, we first show that popular pre-trained transformers perform poorly when used for fine-tuning on

ACL 2022 Workshop on Insights from Negative Results in NLP2022Natural language guided embodied task completion is a challenging problem since it requires understanding natural language instructions, aligning them with egocentric visual observations, and choosing appropriate actions to execute in the environment to produce desired changes. We experiment with augmenting a transformer model for this task with modules that effectively utilize a wider field of view and

CHI 20222022Online shoppers have a lot of information at their disposal when making a purchase decision. They can look at images of the product, read reviews, make comparisons with other products, do research online, read expert reviews, and more. Voice shopping (purchasing items via a Voice assistant such as Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant) is different. Voice introduces novel challenges as the communication channel

Contrastive representation learning for cross-document coreference resolution of events and entitiesNAACL 20222022Identifying related entities and events within and across documents is fundamental to natural language understanding. We present an approach to entity and event coreference resolution utilizing contrastive representation learning. Earlier state-of-the-art methods have formulated this problem as a binary classification problem and leveraged large transformers in a cross-encoder architecture to achieve their

CVPR 2022 Workshop on Learning with Limited Labelled Data for Image and Video Understanding2022We propose SCVRL, a novel contrastive-based framework for self-supervised learning for videos. Differently from previous contrast learning based methods that mostly focus on learning visual semantics (e.g., CVRL), SCVRL is capable of learning both semantic and motion patterns. For that, we reformulate the popular shuffling pretext task within a modern contrastive learning paradigm. We show that our transformer-based
