Amazon’s in-house AI chips, Trainium and Inferentia, are reportedly underperforming against Nvidia’s GPUs, with some AI startups like Cohere and Stability AI citing speed and cost issues. Despite these challenges and limited access to Trainium 2, Amazon aims to reduce reliance on Nvidia for future growth, though customer dissatisfaction could impact cloud margins.
