Amazon Advertising helps companies build their brand and connect with shoppers, through ads shown both within and beyond Amazon's store, including websites, apps, and streaming TV content in more than 15 countries. Businesses or brands of all sizes including registered sellers, vendors, book vendors, Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) authors, app developers, and agencies on Amazon marketplaces can upload their own ad creatives, which can include images, video, audio, and of course products sold on Amazon. To promote an accurate, safe, and pleasant shopping experience, these ads must comply with content guidelines. Can you figure out why two of the following ads would not be compliant? It also shows the same product multiple times.

If Amazon opens mini department stores as rumored, they could include high-tech dressing rooms and the retailer's own private-label clothing brands, according to a Wall Street Journal report. The aim is apparently to address some of the normal irritants of clothes shopping, increase its own brand recognition and make the stores as efficient as possible. One idea is that customers would use a smartphone app to scan QR codes of items they want to try on. Associates would then gather the items and place them in fitting rooms, and the process could eventually become more automated with the use of robots. Once inside, you'd be able to ask for more clothes using a touchscreen, which could also recommend items you might like based on what you've chosen so far.

Shelf Engine's mission to eliminate food waste in grocery retailers now has some additional celebrity backers. The company brought in a $2 million extension to its $41 million Series B announced in March. Ellen DeGeneres, Portia de Rossi, Shaun White and Shawn Mendes are the new backers, who came in through a strategic round of funding alongside PLUS Capital to bring the Seattle-based company's total funding to $60 million since the company's inception in 2016. This includes a $12 million Series A from 2020. Shelf Engine's grocery order automation technology applies advanced statistical models and artificial intelligence to deliver accurate food order volume so that customers can reduce their food waste by as much as 32% while increasing gross margins and sales of more than 50%.

Modern quantitative finance is based around the approach of pattern recognition in historical data. This approach requires teams of scientists to work in a collaborative and regulated setting in order to develop models that can be used to make trading predictions. With the growing influence of this field, both participants and regulators are looking to put in place mechanisms to understand how and why models have been developed, for reasons such as regulatory compliance and model reproducibility. We refer to this tractability problem as lineage. The challenge of reproducibility and lineage in machine learning (ML) is three-fold: code lineage, data lineage, and model lineage.

More of the creative work these days is not being done by humans at all. When Dixons Carphone wanted to push shoppers towards its Black Friday sale, the company turned to Artificial Intelligence (AI) software and got the winning line "The time is now". Saul Lopes, head of customer marketing at Dixons Carphone, thinks it worked because it didn't have the words Black Friday in it. His human copywriters had produced dozens of potentially successful sentences but they all mentioned Black Friday. It was technology that broke this chain of thought.

Nithin Buduma is one of the first machine learning engineers at XY.ai, a start-up based out of Harvard and Stanford working to help healthcare companies leverage their massive datasets. Nikhil Buduma is the cofounder and chief scientist of Remedy, a San Francisco-based company that is building a new system for data-driven primary healthcare. At the age of 16, he managed a drug discovery laboratory at San Jose State University and developed novel low-cost screening methodologies for resource-constrained communities. By the age of 19, he was a two-time gold medalist at the International Biology Olympiad. He later attended MIT, where he focused on developing large-scale data systems to impact healthcare delivery, mental health, and medical research.

Amazon SageMaker Studio is the first fully integrated development environment (IDE) for machine learning (ML). With a single click, data scientists and developers can quickly spin up Studio notebooks to explore and prepare datasets to build, train, and deploy ML models in a single pane of glass. We're excited to announce a new set of capabilities that enable interactive Spark-based data processing from Studio notebooks. Data scientists and data engineers can now visually browse, discover, and connect to Spark data processing environments running on Amazon EMR, right from your Studio notebooks in a few simple clicks. After you're connected, you can interactively query, explore and visualize data, and run Spark jobs to prepare data using the built-in SparkMagic notebook environments for Python and Scala.

Walmart has been America's biggest retailer since the 1990s, its focus on low costs and ultra-efficient logistics helping it edge out competitors and keep customers coming back. But Amazon has been gaining on Walmart, and the pandemic gave the online retail giant a huge boost. Both companies are continuously searching for ways to cut costs while meeting consumer needs. It seems one of the needs that's steadily increasing is delivery. Whether due to busy schedules, health or safety concerns, or simply avoiding the stress of steering a loaded shopping cart up and down countless aisles, more people are trading in-store shopping for online shopping.
