The real unlock for AI agents isn't just smarter models.
It's models that can sustain work across long, complex tasks without losing context or going off track.
That's what @AnthropicAI's Opus 4.8 delivers, and it's now available on Amazon Bedrock: https://t.co/m94se3DzjU
JUST IN: Amazon is now delivering packages up to 200mph on bullet trains. 🚄📦
Japan's world-class Shinkansen network (famous for being punctual) is now being used for our middle-mile deliveries. Packages are transported using non-passenger space on three routes, connecting Amazon operations in the Greater Tokyo Area with facilities across central and northern Japan. It’s another step toward faster, more reliable deliveries to customers across Japan.
This is just the latest example of Amazon delivering differently to get packages to customers quickly. Across the globe, we've embraced delivery methods tailored to the unique needs of the communities we serve—from e-cargo bikes, to delivery drones, to horse-drawn carriages, and more.
Meet Amazon's e-cargo bike in D.C.: a four-wheeled, battery-powered delivery solution complete with rear cameras, regenerative braking, and automatic parking brakes. 🚲⚡
The e-cargo bikes can fit in bike lanes and carry a secure rear cargo hold full of packages. They also have covered seating and windshield wipers for the delivery associates riding them.
You may have already seen our e-cargo bikes in New York City. They can navigate streets and make stops where full-size vans aren't always practical thanks to tight streets, heavy traffic, and limited parking. Washington, D.C. is now the latest U.S. city to put them to the test.
