Amazon’s cloud unit has suffered at least two outages due to errors involving its own Al tools, leading some employees to raise doubts about the US tech giant’s push to roll out these coding assistants. Amazon Web Services experienced a 13-hour interruption to one system used by its customers in mid-December after engineers allowed its Kiro AI coding tool to make certain changes, according to four people familiar with the matter.
