The key to R1’s success was distillation, a technique that makes AI models more efficient. It works by getting a bigger model to tutor a smaller model: You run the teacher model on a lot of examples and record the answers, and reward the student model as it copies those responses as closely as possible,…

The rise of powerful large language models (LLMs) that can be consumed via API calls has made it remarkably straightforward to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities into applications. Yet despite this convenience, a significant number of enterprises are choosing to self-host their own models—accepting the complexity of infrastructure management, the cost of GPUs in the…

Quality assurance (QA) testing has long been the backbone of software development, but traditional QA approaches haven’t kept pace with modern development cycles and complex UIs. Most organizations still rely on a hybrid approach combining manual testing with script-based automation frameworks like Selenium, Cypress, and Playwright—yet teams spend significant amount of their time maintaining existing…

Enterprise organizations increasingly rely on web-based applications for critical business processes, yet many workflows remain manually intensive, creating operational inefficiencies and compliance risks. Despite significant technology investments, knowledge workers routinely navigate between eight to twelve different web applications during standard workflows, constantly switching contexts and manually transferring information between systems. Data entry and validation tasks…

Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) transforms how organizations handle unstructured document data, enabling automatic extraction of valuable information from invoices, contracts, and reports. Today, we explore how to programmatically create an IDP solution that uses Strands SDK, Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base, and Bedrock Data Automation (BDA). This solution is provided through a Jupyter notebook that enables users…

For example, researchers at Imperial College were investigating how certain “pirate phages”—these fascinating viruses that hijack other viruses—manage to break into bacteria. Understanding these mechanisms could open up entirely new ways of tackling drug-resistant infections, which is obviously a huge global health challenge. What Co-scientist brought to this work was the ability to rapidly analyze…
