Amazon has launched Nova, a new set of artificial intelligence models that can understand and process different types of data, like text, images, and sound, all at the same time. This technology is designed to make Amazon’s products smarter and help businesses create more advanced AI applications.
Nova includes four different models: Micro, Lite, Pro, and Premier. Micro is the fastest at processing text, while Lite can handle text, images, and videos quickly. Pro is a balanced model, offering a mix of speed, accuracy, and cost for various tasks. Premier, arriving in early 2025, is the most powerful and is designed for more complex tasks.
Nova also features tools like Canvas and Reel. Canvas helps users create and edit images, such as removing backgrounds or adjusting colors. Reel is more advanced, allowing users to create short videos up to six seconds long from text prompts or images.
These new models will make AI more useful and help create smarter user experiences. Nova will be available through Amazon Web Services (AWS), making it easier for developers to build AI-powered apps. Amazon has also introduced Nova Studio, a tool that helps developers create AI programs with minimal technical knowledge.
Nova is an important step in advancing AI technology, making it more capable and accessible.
