Amazon Web Services (AWS) announced a $4 billion investment in Chile to build its cloud data center for Latin America.

The company expects this center to be operational in 2026 and will operate from Chile as the sole facility for the region. Amazon is also managing projects in Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina.

According to Investing, this project “will primarily use air cooling, minimizing the use of water in its cooling systems” to meet Amazon’s commitment to zero emissions.

According to Prasad Kalyanaraman, Vice President of Infrastructure Services at AWS, “the growing demand for cloud services“ in the region justifies the construction of this data center, incorporating advanced technology and the participation of government agencies, the private sector, and startups.

In a bold step toward the future of enterprise AI, Amazon introduced “Amazon Q,” its own AI-based assistant designed specifically for businesses. Announced by Amazon Web Services on November 28, this AI chatbot is set to change the way employees interact and manage tasks in the corporate environment.

“Amazon Q provides immediate and relevant information and advice to employees, streamlining tasks, accelerating decision-making, and fostering creativity and innovation at work,” said Adam Selipsky, CEO of AWS, in an interview with CNBC on the same day. of the advertisement.

This step is part of Amazon’s broader strategy to integrate generative artificial intelligence across its entire product ecosystem, spanning both the consumer and private sector. “Q” is expected to benefit employees in various departments, from Human Resources to design and operations.

In terms of training, “Q” is based on 17 years of AWS data, positioning it as a powerful tool backed by an extensive history of information. Although it is currently in preview mode and only available in Oregon and Northern Virginia, United States, its full rollout is anticipated to be a valuable resource for businesses globally.

It is important to note that Amazon’s “Q” project is not related to “Q*”, an artificial intelligence project developed by OpenAI, the entity behind ChatGPT. This clarification comes amid controversies surrounding OpenAI, which recently underwent leadership changes.

Amazon, an AI investing powerhouse, has demonstrated its commitment to innovation by making a $4 billion bet on Anthropic, the team behind the Claude 2 chatbot. Anthropic, in turn, significantly leverages the computing power of AWS.

With the launch of “Amazon Q”, the company faces competition from tech giants such as Google and Meta, which have already introduced their own AI chatbots, Google Bard and LLaMA, in early 2023. Meanwhile, Microsoft has invested considerably in OpenAI, consolidating the intense competition in the field of artificial intelligence.

Amazon World Services (AWS) announced the launch of new services and tools that aim to democratize generative artificial intelligence (AI) by making it easier for all developers to access a wide range of foundational (FM) models, of which AI is powered to create the content.

Amazon has specialized in artificial intelligence and machine learning for twenty years, technologies that have enabled it to develop services such as the Alexa cloud voice assistant, the Prime Air e-commerce recommendation engine, and Amazon’s computer vision technology Go.

During this time, AWS explained in a statement, it innovated to provide a highly productive and scalable infrastructure for cost-effective ML training and inference, while also launching various services that allow customers to add AI capabilities to existing applications. applications, such as image recognition, prediction, and smart search, through an application programming interface (API) call.

For generative AI, the company applies the same “democratizing approach” and, for this reason, it is now working to take these technologies out of the field of research and experimentation and extend their availability beyond ‘startups’ and large technology companies.

With this objective, it has now launched a series of innovations that, according to what it has indicated, will help its clients to use generative AI in their companies in a “practical and simple” way.

Amazon has launched AWS Private 5G, a service for businesses that offers these entities the possibility of building and developing their own 4G mobile networks.

The company announced this initiative in November of last year, when the CEO of Amazon Web Services, Adam Selipsky, indicated that with this service, organizations could configure this type of network taking advantage of the 5G standard.

He then pointed out that AWS Private 5G would have no upfront fees or per-device costs, so customers would only pay for the network capacity and performance they needed to build their own private 5G networks.

After making it available to users with a preliminary version in the United States the company announced the official launch of AWS in different regions of the country, such as Ohio, Oregon and Northern Virginia.

As anticipated by Amazon in a statement, this device, which is compatible with 4G LTE and will support 5G “in the future”, has a simple installation and is easy to operate and scale. In addition, it does not require specialized experience.

The company said that those interested in obtaining this solution will have to request the hardware unit from AWS and, once they have received it, automate the desired configuration.
