You know AWS is a cloud computing leader, but did you realize the company offers a broad array of services and infrastructure at all three layers of the machine learning technology stack?

And the company aims to put ML in the hands of every practitioner with innovative services like Amazon Code Whisperer, a new ML powered pair programming tool that helps developers improve productivity by significantly reducing the time to build software applications.
