Amazon (AMZN) released its next-generation artificial intelligence (AI) hardware and chatbot tool while deepening its ties with chipmaker Nvidia (NVDA) at a conference on Tuesday.
At its re:Invent conference in Las Vegas, Amazon Web Services (AWS) Chief Executive (CEO) Adam Selipsky announced next-generation Graviton4 and Trainium2 chip hardware. The new designs focus on meeting the needs of machine learning (ML) training and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:gen♐erative artificial intelligence (AI), Amazon said.
Selipsky said the Trainium2 chip will be available next year and is up to four times faster than its predecessor for customers running workloads on the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud pl📖atform (Amaꦍzon EC2).
AWS said it will also offer access to Nvidia's (NVDA) 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:new H200 AI graphics processing unit (GPU).

Amazon noted companies such as Datadog, Formula 1, Pinterest, SAP, and Snowflake were using its Gra♔vitron processors for a range of workloads.
Amazon is also going head-to-head with 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Microsoft and Google with a new $20-per-month chatbot called "Amazon Q." The product will go up against the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:$30-per-month AI assistants recently introduced by the other two companies.
