This year the AWS Summit New York was all about strong messaging surrounding the exploration of Generative AI (Gen AI) capabilities and tools through AWS services and products.

The AWS Summit’s first keynote speaker announced new features like Amazon Q Developer, a Gen AI-powered assistant that integrates with most used integrated development environments to help them ask questions about architecture, best practices and documentation. Amazon Q Developer integrates with Amazon SageMaker to support developers with their Machine Learning tasks. 

The AWS Summit also highlighted the strengthening of partnerships, such as AI models producer Anthropic and its new foundation models, namely Claude 3.5 Sonnet, the latter, released in mid-June.

During the breakout sessions, there were several topics that catered to both beginners and advanced users. GFT USA had the opportunity to attend a particularly unique session about the techniques utilized when fine-tuning Gen AI models. This, in cooperation between AWS Bedrock and Anthropic specialists, the session proved to be very interactive with several questions coming from customers who are exploring and training their own Gen AI models. 

Most of the sponsors inside the Expo pavilion presented solutions around cloud security, monitoring and AI-related products and services, ranging from graph databases to virtual reality, and everything in between.
