Amazon ‌unveiled two new devices on Thursday for listening to and recording people's information throughout the day to offer calendar reminders and other AI-driven insights under the Bee brand it acquired last year.

Amazon on Friday confirmed it was shuffling leadership in its Alexa division, a day after ​the company announced its first tablet computers featuring the voice ‌assistant.

Amazon confirmed on Wednesday it had cut what it said were a small number of jobs, primarily ​in its Stores unit which oversees the main e-commerce website.

Amazon on Wednesday introduced a new agentic artificial ​intelligence service for third-party sellers on ‌its main e-commerce site, expanding automation features for easier listing and inventory management. Agents are ​fast becoming the hottest area of ​growth in AI because they can perform ⁠multiple actions with little to no ​human intervention. Here are some details:

Amazon weighed in on the artificial intelligence safety debate roiling Silicon Valley, saying AI labs should ‌ensure models are released only when they are safe and fully tested, but stopped short of calling for an industry slowdown.

OpenAI cautioned that its new model sometimes attempts to evade ‌human monitoring.

Amazon.com illegally raised prices for advertisers by surreptitiously raising the minimum price required to place ads that ‌promote their products, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission alleged in a lawsuit filed in federal court Monday.

Ask just about anyone in Silicon Valley and they’ll tell you that AI is coming for their jobs. Software coders laboring to improve AI are effectively working to make their jobs obsolete.

Amazon said on Wednesday it will expand its drone delivery ​service to reach hundreds of U.S. cities and towns by year end, up from 11 locations where it currently ‌operates serving multiple surrounding communities.

The change would make it more difficult for customers to address grievances in court.
