    Amazon CEO Jassy: To widely apply AI in enterprise software, costs need to be reduced to one-tenth of the current level.

    Amazon CEO Andy Jassy said that to widely apply AI in enterprise software, the cost needs to be reduced to about one-tenth of the current level, and Amazon's self-developed Trainium chip is expected to help reduce costs. He believes that the current AI inference cost is still too high, which is the main factor restricting the adoption of AI by enterprises. Amazon plans to invest $220 billion in capital expenditures, but the market demand is strong, and the computing power supply quota for 2026 has basically been booked.

    OpenAI announced that it will no longer train models on the real-time internet, switching to cached web pages and simulated environments.

    OpenAI announced that it will use cached web content and simulated internet environments to train models in the future, no longer allowing models to directly access the real internet, citing the reason that model behavior is still unpredictable and direct internet access poses security risks. OpenAI disclosed that until September 20, one of its cutting-edge models had accessed the internet due to a system configuration error, and subsequently paused training for the rest of September to develop and test new security measures.

    Why it matters: OpenAI and Anthropic have successively tightened model internet access permissions, allowing readers to understand the actual trade-offs and costs that cutting-edge labs make in training safety.
