Amazon has launched Nova, a highly competitive family of foundation models. Nova Pro, Lite and Flash set new standards for the intelligence that can be accessed at the price and speed these models are offered at.
Nova Pro, the flagship model, ranks amongst the leading frontier models in the Artificial Analysis Quality Index. With a score of 75, Pro ranks higher than GPT-4o (November release), Mistral Large 2 and Llama 3.1 405B. Access is priced competitively at $0.8/1M Input tokens and $3.2/1M output tokens, ~1/3 the cost of GPT-4o ($2.5/$10).
Nova Lite and Micro are smaller and faster models that offer competitive intelligence for their price class. Micro can be accessed at 157 output tokens/s, faster than Gemini 1.5 Flash, Llama 3.1 8B (median of providers) and GPT-4o mini. Lite and Micro are competitively priced at $0.06 and $0.1 per 1M tokens respectively (blended 3:1, input:output) positioning them well for speed and/or price-sensitive use-cases.
See below for deep dives on the performance and capabilities of these models.
The Nova models offer a seamless balance between performance, latency and cost and are currently one of the top frontier models out there. Check out an independent analysis of our suite of models: https://t.co/qyS4WE9Rwh

Is GPQA garbage?
A couple weeks ago, @typedfemale pointed out some mistakes in a GPQA question, so I figured this would be a good opportunity to discuss how we interpret benchmark scores, and what our goals should be when creating benchmarks.
7 years at @Shopify today. This is truly a special place full of people who care deeply about the mission and the quality of work we do. It has been so fulfilling to build products to solve tough meaningful problems which help merchants around the world. ๐
Amazing collaboration between @BMW and @alexa99 AI (led by my colleague @samridhishree) to use the LLMs trained by our team to help customers navigate the features in their car easier!

๐ง Development Demo: Powered by the @amazon Alexa large language model, we trained our voice assistant with vehicle operating instructions.
๐ฌ This allows for more natural conversations on vehicle-related topics. Stay tuned on what's to come.

Super pumped to show what my incredible team in @amazon has been working on with @BMW at #CES2024 ! We leverage our in-house AlexaLLM to bring you a much more conversational, informative and a fun BMW Car Expert. Experience it for yourself if you are at CES this week!
Highlights of what @BMW is showing at #CES2024: an improved voice assistant boosted by Alexa AI, Bluetooth gaming controller integration, upgraded TV streaming and more mixed/augmented reality features for tomorrow's BMWs (and today's) ๐ค
