Amazon's AI Training Program Aims to Educate and Attract Millions of Workers

Amazon is launching a program called "AI Ready" to train millions of workers in artificial intelligence (AI) skills, including the use of generative AI technology. The program aims to train at least 2 million people by 2025 and is part of Amazon's efforts to compete with rivals such as Microsoft and Google in the AI talent market. Amazon's own generative AI efforts have reportedly fallen behind, prompting the company to invest in training its workforce in AI skills.
