Amazon used its re:Invent conference to push deeper into “agentic” AI and multicloud services, highlighting tools aimed at speeding software modernization and reshaping customer interactions. New capabilities in AWS Transform promise to cut time and cost in updating legacy applications, while Amazon Connect adds AI agents for natural-language self-service, agent assistance, and real‑time recommendations. TwelveLabs’ Marengo 3.0 video model arrives on Amazon Bedrock, as do integrations from Deepgram and partners such as Anthropic and ElevenLabs. Corporate tie-ups spanned industries: Lyft rolled out a driver-facing AI agent, Nissan advanced its software-defined vehicle platform on AWS, Visa outlined blueprints for agent-driven payments, and BlackRock said it will offer Aladdin on AWS starting in 2026. AWS also previewed Interconnect for private, high-bandwidth links to Google Cloud, underscoring a bid to simplify multicloud networking for large enterprises.
