Artificial Intelligence

In Part 1 of this series, you learned how you can use the combination of Amazon Bedrock and Pipecat, an open source framework for voice and multimodal conversational AI agents to build applications with human-like conversational AI. You learned about common use cases of voice agents and the cascaded models approach, where you orchestrate several components to build your voice AI agent. In this post (Part 2), you explore how to use speech-to-speech foundation model, Amazon Nova Sonic, and the benefits of using a unified model.

In the fashion industry, teams are frequently innovating quickly, often utilizing AI. Sharing content, whether it be through videos, designs, or otherwise, can lead to content moderation challenges. There remains a risk (through intentional or unintentional actions) of inappropriate, offensive, or toxic content being produced and shared. In this post, we cover the use of the multimodal toxicity detection feature of Amazon Bedrock Guardrails to guard against toxic content. Whether you’re an enterprise giant in the fashion industry or an up-and-coming brand, you can use this solution to screen potentially harmful content before it impacts your brand’s reputation and ethical standards. For the purposes of this post, ethical standards refer to toxic, disrespectful, or harmful content and images that could be created by fashion designers.

In this post, we share some of the new innovations in SageMaker AI that can accelerate how you build and train AI models. These innovations include new observability capabilities in SageMaker HyperPod, the ability to deploy JumpStart models on HyperPod, remote connections to SageMaker AI from local development environments, and fully managed MLflow 3.0.

With a one-click installation of the Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) add-on for SageMaker HyperPod observability, you can consolidate health and performance data from NVIDIA DCGM, instance-level Kubernetes node exporters, Elastic Fabric Adapter (EFA), integrated file systems, Kubernetes APIs, Kueue, and SageMaker HyperPod task operators. In this post, we walk you through installing and using the unified dashboards of the out-of-the-box observability feature in SageMaker HyperPod. We cover the one-click installation from the Amazon SageMaker AI console, navigating the dashboard and metrics it consolidates, and advanced topics such as setting up custom alerts.

In this post, we explore how Amazon SageMaker now offers fully managed support for MLflow 3.0, streamlining AI experimentation and accelerating your generative AI journey from idea to production. This release transforms managed MLflow from experiment tracking to providing end-to-end observability, reducing time-to-market for generative AI development.

In this post, we announce Amazon SageMaker HyperPod support for deploying foundation models from SageMaker JumpStart, as well as custom or fine-tuned models from Amazon S3 or Amazon FSx. This new capability allows customers to train, fine-tune, and deploy models on the same HyperPod compute resources, maximizing resource utilization across the entire model lifecycle.

AI developers and machine learning (ML) engineers can now use the capabilities of Amazon SageMaker Studio directly from their local Visual Studio Code (VS Code). With this capability, you can use your customized local VS Code setup, including AI-assisted development tools, custom extensions, and debugging tools while accessing compute resources and your data in SageMaker Studio. In this post, we show you how to remotely connect your local VS Code to SageMaker Studio development environments to use your customized development environment while accessing Amazon SageMaker AI compute resources.

This post demonstrates the best practices to run K8sGPT in AWS with Amazon Bedrock in two modes: K8sGPT CLI and K8sGPT Operator. It showcases how the solution can help SREs simplify Kubernetes cluster management through continuous monitoring and operational intelligence.

Rocket AI Agent is more than a digital assistant. It’s a reimagined approach to client engagement, powered by agentic AI. By combining Amazon Bedrock Agents with Rocket’s proprietary data and backend systems, Rocket has created a smarter, more scalable, and more human experience available 24/7, without the wait. This post explores how Rocket brought that vision to life using Amazon Bedrock Agents, powering a new era of AI-driven support that is consistently available, deeply personalized, and built to take action.

This post demonstrates building an intelligent AI assistant using Mistral AI models on AWS and MCP, integrating real-time location services, time data, and contextual memory to handle complex multimodal queries. This use case, restaurant recommendations, serves as an example, but this extensible framework can be adapted for enterprise use cases by modifying MCP server configurations to connect with your specific data sources and business systems.
