In this special news analysis edition of the Targeting AI podcast from AI Business, Esther Shittu and Shaun Sutter interview R “Ray” Wang of Constellation Research, with Wang live from the AWS re:Invent 2025 conference in Las Vegas. Wang says AWS’s new frontier AI agents represent a major step in the development of agentic AI, and other AI vendors are likely to follow AWS’s lead. He also notes that AWS’s new Trainium AI chips position AWS to be less reliant on AI chips from Nvidia, though the AI hardware giant continues to be a major chip provider to AWS. Wang also notes that AWS’s new “AI factories” are crucial for the growing sovereign AI movement, as countries and regions worldwide are establishing their own AI industries and are less dependent on the U.S. and China.
