New AWS research introduces priming, a method that reduces pretraining costs for hybrid architectures by over 99% by leveraging pretrained Transformer weights, saving trillions of tokens and hundreds of thousands of GPU-hours.
A great week with the language modeling community at @colmweb.org. Thanks to everyone who connected with our team. See you next year! #COLM2026

Looking forward to presenting this talk on Responsible AI for Science on Thursday at the 3rd Annual Conference on Language Modeling (COLM)! @colmweb.org #colm2026 @amazon.science @nsfsimonscosmicai.bsky.social @texasscience.bsky.social @utaustin.bsky.social
Day 1 at @colmweb.org. We're here all week with live research talks, meet-the-scientist sessions, and conversations on what's next for language models. Stop by the Amazon booth. #COLM2026 More info: https://amzn.to/4jsMYKM
"One workload is power-bound. The next workload is memory-bandwidth-bound. The next is memory-bound. It's one of the most interesting hardware design problems that we've seen in ages." Amazon SVP Peter DeSantis sat down with SemiAnalysis founder Dylan Patel at #AIInfraSummit:
Amazon Bio Discovery developed three AI approaches to accelerate antibody drug design: MochiBind (sequence-based affinity ranking), CA-MAP (developability prediction with batch effect correction), and an agent-guided design system with 46 lab-validated hits against a novel cancer target.
Years of iterating against the same benchmarks should, by textbook logic, produce overfitting. It largely doesn't. New research explains why: strategies that generalize can be expressed in too compact a form to allow memorization, while the ones that overfit don't survive a compression.

A blog post on some neat work with @zstevenwu.bsky.social and Martin Bertran: www.amazon.science/blog/why-don...
When LLM judges agree, the right question is why. Shared prompts, model families, or training lineage can make a majority look stronger than it is. Dependence-aware aggregation via Ising models accounts for this, improving accuracy 9–14% over weighted majority vote.
How did a model upgrade make agents worse? By pairing real enterprise SOPs with functioning tools and ground-truth grading across 12 industries and 2,000+ tasks, SOP-Bench helps find such anomalies.
Amazon's Automated Reasoning Group started by demoing tools to prove AWS systems secure and correct. A decade later, they have proved the Nitro Isolation Engine, cryptographic code, and S3 correct. Now they are applying the same techniques to AI.

📣 Amazon Research Awards announces the 34 recipients of the Build on Trainium program, a $110M credit initiative supporting AI research at 30 universities on AWS Trainium:
Training a graph neural network on multiple objectives usually means blending conflicting gradients at every step. Instead of compromising among parameter updates from different training objectives, ControlG allocates capacity to objectives sequentially and dynamically via PID control. #ICML2026
As AI agents take on higher-stakes decisions, their actions need to be provably correct. Amazon is investing in the Lean FRO to make mathematical proof accessible to every developer: amzn.to/4vUsCg9
Turnstile is an open-source Rust proxy that records token-native rollout data for agentic RL. Harness stays unchanged. Trainer gets exact token IDs, log probs, and loss masks.
🎉 The Chronos family of models has reached 1 billion downloads on Hugging Face: https://amzn.to/3YBkfZl Chronos-2 handles univariate, multivariate, and covariate-informed forecasting in a zero-shot manner, outperforming existing time series foundation models by a substantial margin.
HydroShear is a new physics-based simulator that teaches robots how to use their sense of touch to perform complex manipulation tasks, in a way that transfers seamlessly to the real world:

TRISO nuclear fuel particles are the size of a poppy seed. Three ceramic layers act as a miniature containment system, sealing radioactive byproducts at the source.
The biggest AI breakthroughs are still ahead of us. At @vivatech.bsky.social, Peter DeSantis, Amazon’s head of AI, chips, and quantum, said transformers won’t be the last architecture, and that chips and models have to evolve in lockstep to get there.

Another great CVPR in the books. We enjoyed connecting with the computer vision community and sharing our latest work. Thank you to everyone who engaged with our team. #CVPR2026 @cvprconference.bsky.social
Amazon researchers release Simple Strands Agent (SSA), a lightweight, open-source harness that achieves SOTA across SWE-Bench-Verified, SWE-Bench-Pro, and Terminal-Bench2 by closing the gap between what models intend and what harnesses execute.
The first formally verified hypervisor is now deployed in a commercial cloud. The Nitro Isolation Engine is generally available today on Graviton5, backed by 330,000 lines of machine-checked mathematics:
Graviton5 is now generally available. 192 cores, four-chiplet architecture, DDR5-8800, PCIe gen6, and 25% better performance than Graviton4 for general-purpose and agentic AI workloads:
