This post was co-written with Greg Benson, Chief Scientist; Aaron Kesler, Sr. Product Manager; and Rich Dill, Enterprise Solutions Architect from SnapLogic. Many customers are building generative AI apps on Amazon Bedrock and Amazon CodeWhisperer to create code artifacts based on natural language. This use case highlights how large language models (LLMs) are able to […]

The financial service (FinServ) industry has unique generative AI requirements related to domain-specific data, data security, regulatory controls, and industry compliance standards. In addition, customers are looking for choices to select the most performant and cost-effective machine learning (ML) model and the ability to perform necessary customization (fine-tuning) to fit their business use cases. Amazon […]

For decades, Amazon has pioneered and innovated machine learning (ML), bringing delightful experiences to its customers. From the earliest days, Amazon has used ML for various use cases such as book recommendations, search, and fraud detection. Similar to the rest of the industry, the advancements of accelerated hardware have allowed Amazon teams to pursue model […]

Today, geospatial workflows typically consist of loading data, transforming it, and then producing visual insights like maps, text, or charts. Generative AI can automate these tasks through autonomous agents. In this post, we discuss how to use foundation models from Amazon Bedrock to power agents to complete geospatial tasks. These agents can perform various tasks […]

In this post, we demonstrate how to use the SageMaker Python SDK for text embedding and sentence similarity. Sentence similarity involves assessing the likeness between two pieces of text after they are converted into embeddings by the LLM, which is a foundation step for applications like Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG).

Amazon Textract is a machine learning (ML) service that automatically extracts text, handwriting, and data from any document or image. AnalyzeDocument Layout is a new feature that allows customers to automatically extract layout elements such as paragraphs, titles, subtitles, headers, footers, and more from documents. Layout extends Amazon Textract’s word and line detection by automatically […]

Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) allows you to provide a large language model (LLM) with access to data from external knowledge sources such as repositories, databases, and APIs without the need to fine-tune it. When using generative AI for question answering, RAG enables LLMs to answer questions with the most relevant, up-to-date information and optionally cite […]

Prompt engineering has become an essential skill for anyone working with large language models (LLMs) to generate high-quality and relevant texts. Although text prompt engineering has been widely discussed, visual prompt engineering is an emerging field that requires attention. Visual prompts can include bounding boxes or masks that guide vision models in generating relevant and […]

Fake news, defined as news that conveys or incorporates false, fabricated, or deliberately misleading information, has been around as early as the emergence of the printing press. The rapid spread of fake news and disinformation online is not only deceiving to the public, but can also have a profound impact on society, politics, economy, and […]

February 9, 2024: Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose has been renamed to Amazon Data Firehose. Read the AWS What’s New post to learn more. At a basic level, Machine Learning (ML) technology learns from data to make predictions. Businesses use their data with an ML-powered personalization service to elevate their customer experience. This approach allows businesses […]
