Andy Jassy, the CEO of Amazon, is steering the tech giant full throttle into the AI era. Leading Amazon’s aggressive push into the space, Jassy recently greenlit a $4 billion investment in Anthropic, all while overseeing a 2,000-strong team of AI and machine learning experts. 

It’s not just the numbers. Under Jassy, AI is touching every corner of Amazon. From retail and AWS to advertising and Alexa, AI projects are in full swing across the enterprises.

Jassy has big plans for AWS, envisioning it as the key platform where “world-changing AI” will be built. In line with that vision, Amazon is developing its own AI chips, Trainium and Inferentia, to give businesses cost-effective options for powering AI. He’s also spearheading Amazon Bedrock, a service that gives developers access to foundation models for building AI applications more efficiently.

Amazon’s AI efforts don’t stop there. Jassy is behind innovations like Rufus, the AI-powered shopping assistant, new advancements for Alexa, and Amazon Q, an AI tool for businesses. 

Jassy’s long-term vision? He believes generative AI might be the biggest tech revolution since the cloud—or even the internet itself. He’s not just optimistic, he’s ‘very bullish’ on AI’s future and is making sure Amazon is right at the centre of it all.
