Bedrock, Nova 2, and Model Choice
On the software side, Garman stressed that model choice matters. Amazon Bedrock already supports models from DeepSeek, Meta, OpenAI, and Writer, with new additions from Google, Nvidia, Kimi, Minimax, and Mistral announced at re:Invent.
AWS also introduced Amazon Nova 2, the latest evolution of its foundation models. Available in three tiers, Nova 2 spans everyday workloads to complex reasoning tasks and now supports speech-to-speech, human-like conversations.
Garman said Nova 2 delivers “fast, cost-effective reasoning for everyday workloads,” positioning it as a strong competitor in a crowded AI market.
Why AI Agents Will Be “Bigger Than the Internet”
Garman closed by reiterating his boldest claim: AI agents represent a platform shift on par with—or greater than—the Internet itself. With agents embedded across applications, infrastructure, and customer interactions, AWS believes this technology will reshape how businesses operate at every level.
