This week, Amazon announced the closure of its AGI Lab, a team dedicated to research and development in artificial general intelligence. The decision comes as part of broader layoffs within the company's AGI division.
The AGI Lab was based in San Francisco and aimed to advance the capabilities of artificial intelligence. However, the recent restructuring has led to significant changes in the team.
David Luan, who previously led the lab, left the company in February, signaling a shift in leadership and focus within Amazon's AI initiatives.
