Max Ronte asked if I wanted an obligatory photo for LinkedIn… and I didn’t refuse 🙂↔️ This week, we were invited to spend 2 days at Amazon’s London headquarters for a deep dive into Amazon Web Services (AWS)’s GenAI offerings. Some highlights: 🛠️ To start with - compared to other AI players, it’s clear that AWS’s focus is on enabling enterprises to embed GenAI capabilities via tools & platform offerings, rather than competing directly on developing foundational AI models 👩🏻💻 But it’s not just for enterprise - I built 3 (and a half!) working AI apps in under an hour using their PartyRock platform with zero code! #Solopreneur life here I come…!? Jokes aside, the number of times I was told “developers would LOVE if you communicated biz requirements with this” made me realise the importance of no/low-code in streamlining business 🤝 tech collaboration 🤖 Lots of demos showcasing swarm agent architecture (e.g. having an “evaluator” agent judge the outputs of another agent). Guest speaker Julien SIMON from Hugging Face put it nicely when he said - “The reason you give GenAI models a role when prompt engineering is because it helps them perform at their best. So why not bring together a team of GenAI agents, each with their own roles?” 🎤 Julien’s talk on the benefits of open-source in enterprise (and as an accelerator for innovation and collaboration in AI). It was interesting to hear about the dichotomy of Hugging Face’s business model, which balances offering private / closed-source solutions to enterprise clients while supporting open-source initiatives in the broader community A big thank you to AWS for hosting! 🤗 #AWS #GenAI #ArtificialIntelligence #OpenSource #Innovation #NoCode
What an insightful experience! I've found low-code platforms invaluable for bridging the gap between business and tech teams. It's amazing how much more efficiently we can now communicate and implement solutions.
