2025年12月18日(GMT+8)凌晨2:30,亚马逊宣布重组其人工智慧相关团队,并设立由AWS高层领导的新单位。Andy Jassy表示,Peter DeSantis将负责该组织,直接向他汇报。新组织把AGI团队(管理Nova品牌模型与Alexa语音助理的「数位大脑」)、晶片研发,以及量子运算研究整合在同一架构下。
在ChatGPT于2022年末出现后的数个月,亚马逊曾把原本分散于Alexa与AWS的AI工作集中为单一组织,以追求能支撑多用途工具的「前沿」能力。此次调整进一步纳入Annapurna Labs——亚马逊于2015年收购的公司——作为通用晶片与AI硬体的核心基础。这也发生在AWS虽仍是租用算力与储存的最大卖家、但在AI开发者市场面临微软、Google与新创激烈竞争之际。
Jassy称公司正处于「拐点」,新技术将在未来驱动大量客户体验;他并强调DeSantis有在技术边界解题的纪录。现任AGI负责人、长期领导Alexa语音科学的Rohit Prasad将于2025年底离职。Pieter Abbeel(亚马逊于2024年因招揽Covariant创办团队而加入)将领导基础模型团队;另有报导称,OpenAI正就从亚马逊募资100亿美元与使用其晶片进行洽谈(2025年12月17日)。
On December 18, 2025 (GMT+8) at 2:30 AM, Amazon announced a reorganization of its artificial intelligence teams and the creation of a new unit led by a top AWS leader. CEO Andy Jassy said Peter DeSantis will run the group and report directly to him. The new organization combines the AGI team (overseeing Nova-branded models and the “digital brains” of Alexa), Amazon’s chipmaking efforts, and its quantum computing research.
Several months after ChatGPT arrived in late 2022, Amazon had centralized AI work that had been split between Alexa and AWS into a single organization to pursue cutting-edge, multipurpose capabilities. This move further strengthens that effort by adding Annapurna Labs—acquired in 2015—as a core foundation for general-purpose chips and AI-focused hardware. It also comes as AWS remains the largest seller of rented computing and storage but faces intense AI competition from Microsoft, Google, and startups.
Jassy said the company is at an “inflection point” where new technologies will power a significant share of future customer experiences, and he highlighted DeSantis’s record at the edge of what is technically possible. Current AGI chief Rohit Prasad, a longtime leader of Alexa speech science, will leave at the end of 2025. Pieter Abbeel (who joined after Amazon hired Covariant’s founders in 2024) will lead foundational model teams; a separate report said OpenAI is discussing raising $10 billion from Amazon and using its chips (December 17, 2025).
