Amazon.com Inc. is ramping up its artificial intelligence offerings, rolling out powerful new chip arrays and a large language model it says can compete with leading rivals.
The Seattle-based company is stringing together hundreds of thousands of its Trainium2 semiconductors into clusters that will make it easier for partner Anthropic to train the large language models required for generative AI and other machine learning tasks. The new arrays will quintuple the startup’s current processing power, Amazon said.
