    Question

    Amazon AWS Growth Hits 4-Year High; AI Chips Reach $25B Run Rate

    Direct answer

    Amazon's Q2 results highlight a pivot toward infrastructure dominance. AWS growth of 36.7% suggests a re-acceleration of cloud migration. Crucially, the $25 billion run rate for custom chips indicates Amazon is successfully reducing its reliance on external GPU providers while capturing more of the AI stack value.
