In this AWS re:Invent 2023 session, Uma Ramadoss and Tanya Boiteau explore how to elevate workflows using AWS Step Functions and generative AI. They demonstrate how to integrate generative AI capabilities into existing applications with minimal code, leveraging new features like optimized integrations with Amazon Bedrock and HTTP endpoints. The presenters walk through building a video processing application that uses AI to generate titles, descriptions, and avatars, showcasing Step Functions' ability to orchestrate complex workflows involving multiple AWS services and external APIs. Key benefits highlighted include simplified error handling, state management, and human-in-the-loop processes. The session provides practical insights into using Step Functions for prompt chaining and building resilient, production-grade generative AI applications.
