AI agents will change work and society in internet-sized ways, says AWS VP


At AWS Summit, Deepak Singh, VP of developer agents and experiences at AWS, spoke with ZDNET about how agentic AI will bring about a new way of approaching work.

Singh sat down with ZDNET on Wednesday, shortly after AWS introduced a bevy of new tools and features centered around agentic AI solutions. In a blog post timed with the announcements, Amazon shared a similar position, saying that AI is actually augmenting entry-level tech careers, opposing a sentiment that many experts hold, in which early-career roles will actually be the first to go. To further illustrate this narrative, Singh gave a more tangible example of a team member who wanted to build a new feature and estimated it would take approximately one week.
