(Reuters) -E-commerce giant Amazon has developed new generative artificial intelligence (AI) that can process images and videos in addition to text, making it less reliant on AI startup Anthropic, The Information reported on Wednesday.

Stay up to date on the latest AI technology advancements and learn about the challenges and opportunities AI presents now and for the future.

In the case of Amazon and Anthropic, the companies maintain that teams are writing ‘low-level kernels,’ so that parts of the system can interface directly with the Trainium processor as hardware, in the words of spokespersons, the ‘Trainium silicon.’

Amazon has developed a new video AI model to compete with the likes of OpenAI's new Sora text-to-video tech, codename Olympus could be announced next week.

Amazon is reportedly building a new AI model that is multimodal to reduce their dependency on Anthropic AI which is backed by them.

AI-generated voices are synthetic voices that use AI to mimic human speech, generated by deep learning algorithms and neural networks. AI voices work by analyzing large amounts of real human speech (voice recordings) to learn patterns in intonation, pace, and accents. The AI then uses this information to convert text into speech.

SiliconANGLE got an exclusive, behind-the-scenes tour of Amazon Web Services Inc.’s Annapurna Labs, where the cloud powerhouse does the secretive work of designing and testing the upcoming generations of itsAI accelerator Trainium and custom cloud compute Graviton chips.

Amazon's $110M generative AI investment boosts university research, providing advanced tools and resources to drive AI innovation in academia.

The generative AI landscape is crowded, with global tech giants vying for dominance. OpenAI, which secured $6.6 billion in funding in October, now boasts a valuation of $157 billion. Meanwhile, Elon Musk 's xAI is seeking investments that could push its valuation to $40 billion.

The cloud computing giant won’t dislodge the incumbent anytime soon but is hoping to reduce its reliance on the chipmaker.
