AWS SUMMIT
least 100,000 learners with AI skills by 2030, and we are well on our way. “We’ve now prepared over 60,000 students on Cloud skills and AI, and we all know that skills initiatives are critical, and we are continuing to invest in training in order to unlock the full potential of this technology.” First Frontier One of the first ways that AWS is helping businesses unlock the full potential of artificial intelligence is with its AI agent, Kiro. “What used to take years can now be done in days and sometimes even minutes within Amazon,” said Kay. “Agents are being used across every single job, function and family, and the results are incredible. “Our legal teams are able to synthesise Complex Regional requirements using a single prompt. Our Amazon account managers have transformed from spreadsheet warriors to trusted advisors with the ability to generate international expansion strategies on demand, and one of our most distinguished engineers was able to ship more code in five months than in the past 10 years with agents. We’re completely reimagining the way that we build software.” Instead of just spitting out snippets, Kiro works like a full-stack engineering partner, turning natural-language prompts into user stories, acceptance criteria, technical design docs, and architecture diagrams, then generates, tests, and applies it to production-ready code according to an organisation’s patterns and steering files. “AI-powered software development tools evolved rapidly over the past year, from inline tab completion to authoring entire functions to completing multi-step tasks,” continued Kay. “But as these tools became more powerful, we’ve noticed a gap. They were generating code, but builders couldn’t guide the process or ensure it aligned with their team’s standards. “We wanted to take everything that is exciting about AI-powered software development and add the structure that our developers really need. Kiro works with developers, turning your prompts into detailed specs and those specs into working code.” X
