Empowering 1,000-plus partners: How the AWS Think Big for Small Business Program fuels public sector innovation
In March 2021, Amazon Web Services (AWS) launched the Think Big for Small Business (TBSB) Program, which provides partners with access to financial incentives and additional visibility with customers and the AWS team. Since the program launched, it has supported 1,000-plus partners from 73 countries across the globe. In this post, we explore the pivotal role that the TBSB program plays in accelerating the growth of small business partners that serve public sector customers.
Fine-tuning an LLM using QLoRA in AWS GovCloud (US)
Government agencies are increasingly using large language models (LLMs) powered by generative artificial intelligence (AI) to extract valuable insights from their data in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) GovCloud (US) Regions. In this guide, we walk you through the process of adapting LLMs to specific domains with parameter efficient fine-tuning techniques made accessible through Amazon SageMaker integrations with Hugging Face.
Reimagining customer experience with AI-powered conversational service discovery
In this post, we will explore the use of generative artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots as a natural language alternative to the service catalog approach. We will present an Amazon Web Services (AWS) architecture pattern to deploy an AI chatbot that can understand user requests in natural language and provide interactive responses to user requests, directing them to the specific systems or services they are looking for. Chatbots simplify the content navigation and discovery process while improving the customer experience.
Use modular architecture for flexible and extensible RAG-based generative AI solutions
In this post, we cover an Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud infrastructure with a modular architecture that enables you to explore and take advantage of the benefits from different Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)-based generative AI resources in a flexible way. This solution provides several benefits, along with faster time-to-market and shorter development cycles.
Germany’s International University of Applied Sciences automates creation of educational videos using generative AI, serverless on AWS
The International University of Applied Sciences (IU) maintains 90 percent of its course content online. Through its online programs, IU aims to give people worldwide access to highly individualized education, enabling them to further enrich their lives. The large majority of IU’s infrastructure runs on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Read this post to learn why IU worked directly with AWS experts through the Experience-Based Acceleration (EBA) program to expand their automated video generation pipelines to be more scalable, modular, and robust.
Deploy LLMs in AWS GovCloud (US) Regions using Hugging Face Inference Containers
Government agencies are increasingly using large language models (LLMs) powered by generative artificial intelligence (AI) to extract valuable insights from their data in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) GovCloud (US) Regions. In this guide, we walk you through the process of hosting LLMs on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances, using the Hugging Face Text Generation Inference (TGI) Container (TGI) for serving custom LLMs.
How healthcare organizations use generative AI on AWS to turn data into better patient outcomes
Healthcare organizations invest heavily in technology and data. Generative artificial intelligence (AI) empowers healthcare organizations to leverage their investments in robust data foundations, improve patient experience through innovative interactive technologies, boost productivity to help address workforce challenges, and drive new insights to accelerate research. This post highlights three examples of how generative AI on Amazon Web Services (AWS) is being used in healthcare and discusses ways to leverage this technology in a responsible, safe way.
The transformative power of generative artificial intelligence for the public sector
Applications and user experiences are poised to be reinvented with generative artificial intelligence (AI), and the public sector is no exception. Governments, education institutions, nonprofits, and health systems must constantly adapt and innovate to meet the changing needs of their constituents, students, beneficiaries, and patients. If used responsibly, this powerful technology can open doors to endless possibilities to increase creativity, productivity, and progress.
UC Davis Health Cloud Innovation Center, powered by AWS, uses generative AI to fight health misinformation
The University of Pittsburgh, the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), the University of California Davis Health Cloud Innovation Center (UCDH CIC)—powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS)—and the AWS Digital Innovation (DI) team have built a prototype that uses machine learning (ML) and generative artificial intelligence (AI) to transform the public health communications landscape by giving officials the tools they need to fight medical misinformation, disinformation, and malinformation.
Build a personalized student companion powered by generative AI on Amazon Bedrock
The advent of generative artificial intelligence (AI) and large language models (LLMs) present a transformative opportunity to address long-standing educational challenges around creating more personalized learning. In this post, we explain how to implement a personalized, self-paced student companion that addresses the challenges of tailored learning support by harnessing the power of AI to create a personalized, adaptive learning companion that caters to the diverse needs and skillsets of learners.
