Amazon in talks to publish the artificial intelligence tool index, such as the employee’s interests
Amazon employees demanded the index. They may be about to get it.
According to the interior stagnation messages, which were reviewed by Business Insider, many Amazon employees inquired about the use of an artificial intelligence coding index at work. In response, Human Resources Director wrote that Amazon is in talks with the Cursor team to adopt the formal “ASAP” development tool.
The Director of Human Resources added that the two companies deals with “some high priority security problems” before publishing the artificial intelligence tool in Cursor.
“All this depends on whether we can make it work in line with our high safety tape,” wrote, referring to the publication of the index. “But yes, I am optimistic, this can become a reality in Amazon.”
The size of the deal is unclear, but the human resources manager is part of the Amazon global human resources team overseeing “Genai’s adoption”, according to the file of this LinkedIn. Slack channel, intended for index users, is open to anyone working in Amazon and has about 1500 participants.
Cursor’s potential dependence on Amazon is noticeable, as the technology giant urges employees often to be careful when using AI tools outside AI, especially when Amazon has a competitor. In some cases, Amazon has banned use of some third -party intelligence tools at work.
The technology giant already offers its artificial intelligence assistant, Q, and has a chatbot of internal artificial intelligence called “CEDRIC”. Amazon is also developing the most advanced artificial intelligence coding tool, which bears the name “Kiro”, which can compete with the index, according to BI previously.
At least one employee appeared surprised by the possible indicator deal. “It is very cool that Amazon is not afraid to allow us to use it when we have multiple internal competitors.”
A spokesman for Amazon refused to comment.
Index against Windsurf and Q
Amazon deal also reflects the emergence of the fast indicator as one of the most popular artificial intelligence coding tools.
Ansheer, the index maker, raised 900 million dollars, rating 9 billion dollars last month, the Financial Times reported. The starting start value was $ 2.4 billion in December, according to Techcrunch. The company lists tape, Instacart, and Shopify as customers.
Even the CEO of Amazon Andy Jassi noticed. During last month’s profit call, Jassy Cursor, AWS Cloud agent, as a main engine behind the “Esperement of Coding Agents”.
On the Slack channel, which was created for those interested in Cursor, an internal poll showed that more than 60 Amazon employees prefer the index over Windsurf, while he chose slightly more than 10 Windsurf. Openai recently agreed to get Windsurf for $ 3 billion.
“I am sure that once we are indicators in Amazon, people will not pay a lot of attention to Windsurf or other identifiers,” said Slack Human Resources Director, referring to integrated development environments, which is a common type of programs that help engineers to write a more efficient symbol: “I am sure that once we are indicators in Amazon, people will not pay much attention to Windsurf or other identifiers,” referring to integrated development environments, a common type of programs that help engineers to write a more efficient symbol.
Many employees said they like the indicator speed and ease of use, according to Slack.
One of them wrote that the index was “much faster” than the Amazon Q.
The person wrote: “The index changes are almost immediate, while the Q Dev still takes minutes to make a change,” the person wrote.
