"We are living in times of great change” - I speak to AWS’ top AI minds to hear how it wants to open up agents (and building) to everyone (www.techradar.com)

At AWS re:Invent 2025, Amazon unveiled a suite of innovative AI services aimed at democratizing agent-based development for all application developers. Swami Sivasubramanian, VP of Agentic AI at AWS, emphasized the shift towards “agentic development” where developers can build reliable and intelligent agents more easily, significantly reducing development timelines from years to weeks. Among the highlights were “frontier agents” to automate mundane tasks, enabling developers to concentrate on more engaging activities, and Kiro, an intuitive IDE for vibe coding, which has garnered substantial user interest since its launch. This advancement is poised to fundamentally transform the software development landscape by fostering collaboration between human developers and AI agents, referred to as “renaissance developers.” Sivasubramanian and Rohit Prasad, SVP and Head Scientist for Artificial General Intelligence at Amazon, addressed the crucial need for trustworthiness in AI systems, underscoring the importance of verifiable source grounding and customization. AWS aims to lay the groundwork for a future where billions of agents assist users, elevating productivity while affirming that the essence of human work will remain, albeit enhanced by AI capabilities. The potential for an "Internet of Agents" suggests a seismic shift in how tasks are performed, marking a pivotal moment in the evolution of AI integration across industries.
