Be our guest as we celebrate 20 years of AI/ML innovation on October 25, 2022, 9:00 AM – 10:30 AM PT. The first 1,500 people to register will receive $50 of AWS credits. Over the past 20 years, Amazon has delivered many world firsts for artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). ML is an integral part of Amazon and is used for everything from applying personalization models at checkout, to forecasting the demand for products globally, to creating autonomous flight for Amazon Prime Air drones, to natural language processing (NLP) on Alexa. And the use of ML isn't slowing down anytime soon, because ML helps Amazon exceed customer expectations for convenience, cost, and delivery speed.

AMP Robotics is a leader in the recycling technology industry, building AI-based robotics systems that sort recyclable materials and waste at a fraction of the cost of current technology. AMP's technology recovers recyclables from municipal waste, precious commodities from electronic waste, and high-value materials from construction and demolition debris. They turned to CloudFactory when growth outpaced internal capacity to annotate quality data. Our managed workforce led quality control efforts for AMP's data labeling efforts while supporting model outputs and defining new segments.

The chairman of the Commons Science and Technology Committee has thrown his weight behind recommendations for the widespread introduction of artificial intelligence (AI) to the NHS. Norman Lamb said the rewards could be "immense" in terms of cost savings and diagnosing patients more quickly. But he warned people's privacy must be protected and that the health service should get a "fair deal" from technology companies implementing the systems. The report, by the Reform think tank, said AI could be used to target treatment by predicting which individuals or groups might be at risk of illness, to send patients to the most appropriate services or to enable them to "self-care". The technology can also be used to improve diagnoses, Reform said, including for breast cancer – 30 times faster and more accurately than humans, the group claimed.
