This is the best summary I could come up with:


Similar to OpenAI's ChatGPT, Amazon Q users can talk to the chatbot like it's a human.

The AI chatbot can connect to services like Gmail, Google Drive, Microsoft Teams, and Slack for additional data.

Amazon Q is the latest competitor to a growing family of AI chatbots big tech companies have launched over the past year.

In April, Amazon announced Bedrock, a generative AI toolkit that includes a range of machine learning models.

In September, Amazon unveiled its plans to invest $4 billion into Anthropic, an AI startup.

Amazon didn't immediately respond to Business Insider's request for comment.


The original article contains 310 words, the summary contains 98 words. Saved 68%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

I misread the headline as AI chat bot for wankers but that probably still works tbh
