Amazon Expo: AGI Lab, Amazon Nova
Abstract
We are excited to present Amazon Nova, a groundbreaking portfolio of AI offerings that deliver frontier intelligence and industry-leading price performance. Nova is built on advanced AI technologies originally developed for Amazon's internal applications, such as Alexa+, Amazon Ads, and AWS Marketplace, and is now available to AWS customers. Amazon Nova includes Nova models, fast and cost-effective foundation models for text and multimodal needs; Nova Forge, a new service to build your own frontier models; and Nova Act, a new service to build agents that automate browser-based UI workflows powered by a custom Nova 2 Lite model. These models and services have built-in controls for the safe and responsible use of AI, delivering robust protections, content filters, and policy-aligned behaviors to meet compliance requirements. During our demo, a product engineer and researcher will showcase the product and the science behind it. We will demonstrate how Nova models can be customized to deliver responses that reflect industry expertise, powering interactive chat interfaces, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems, agentic applications, video analysis, and UI workflow automation solutions. We will also highlight the multimodal capabilities of Nova, which accept text, image, or video inputs to generate text output, and the creative content generation models that accept text and image inputs to generate image or video output. Amazon Nova has been adopted by tens of thousands of customers across industries, delivering measurable impact with cost savings and gains in productivity, automation, and quality with real-world deployments. We believe that Nova will be a valuable addition to the ICLR conference and look forward to sharing our insights and experiences with you.
