Amazon's AGI SF Lab, located in San Francisco, is making strides in advanced artificial intelligence with its new model, Amazon Nova Act. This model has surpassed well-known competitors like OpenAI and Anthropic in critical benchmarks measuring AI performance. David Luan, the lab's leader, emphasizes the future importance of AI agents in computing. Although the industry is moving towards more autonomous AI agents, many current models still struggle with more complex open-ended tasks. Amazon aims to refine these agents for greater reliability and utility in practical applications.
"I believe that the basic atomic unit of computing in the future is going to be a call to a giant [AI] agent," says David Luan, who leads Amazon's AGI SF Lab. He was previously a vice president of engineering at OpenAI..."
The new model, called Amazon Nova Act, outperforms ones from OpenAI and Anthropic on several benchmarks designed to gauge the intelligence and aptitude of AI agents, Amazon says.
Most of the leading AI labs are now focused on building increasingly capable AI agents. Getting AI to master independent actions, as well as conversation, promises to make the technology more useful and valuable.
Amazon's AGI SF Lab, dedicated to building artificial general intelligence, revealed a new AI model capable of powering some of the most advanced AI agents available anywhere. Hong says.
