Amazon Web Services (AWS) has expanded its partnership with OpenAI to allow its customers to access OpenAI's leading AI systems via Amazon's cloud-computing platforms. This move comes as companies increasingly seek AI agents to boost employee productivity and automate routine tasks. The expansion, announced at a high-profile event called “What’s Next for AWS”, gives OpenAI access to a vast new pool of potential users and Amazon’�s dominant cloud capabilities. The company also announced a significant update to its Quick personal AI assistant, which allows users to apply AI features or analysis to their local computers.
