Openai partners with aws to bring open weight models and codex to amazon bedrock

-

OpenAI expanded its reach into Amazon’s cloud infrastructure through a partnership that integrated its latest models and coding capabilities into Amazon Bedrock, bringing together OpenAI’s artificial intelligence models with AWS’s enterprise-grade infrastructure to offer developers a unified platform for building generative AI applications.

The integration centred on OpenAI’s open-weight models, specifically the gpt-oss-20b and gpt-oss-120b variants. The smaller model served use cases requiring lower latency and specialised applications, while the larger model targeted production environments and complex reasoning tasks. Both models featured a context window of 128,000 tokens, enabling developers to work with substantial amounts of information in a single interaction. The models supported text input and output modalities and could be invoked through multiple operations, including standard model invocation and batch inference capabilities.

The Codex coding agent formed a key component of the integration. Recent updates to Codex introduced first-class Amazon Bedrock support, allowing developers to connect existing code using OpenAI or Anthropic SDKs by modifying configuration settings. The latest version of Codex CLI incorporated AWS SigV4 signing and credential-based authentication, streamlining the connection process for developers working within AWS environments.

A new Stateful Runtime Environment for Agents in Amazon Bedrock, powered by OpenAI models, emerged from the partnership. The environment was optimised for AWS infrastructure and designed for agentic workflows, incorporating state management, reliability features and governance capabilities required for production deployments. The runtime environment enabled AWS customers to access OpenAI’s intelligence while maintaining the security, scalability and cost optimisation that Amazon Bedrock provided.

The integration provided developers access to model diversity through a single unified API, removing the need to change application code when switching between different AI providers. A pay-as-you-go pricing model reduced financial barriers, allowing organisations to scale AI workloads without fixed monthly commitments. Amazon Bedrock’s managed infrastructure abstracted deployment challenges and provided built-in memory management and identity management capabilities.

The partnership announcement in February included investment commitments that underscored both companies’ confidence in the collaboration, aligning OpenAI’s artificial intelligence expertise with Amazon’s cloud infrastructure capabilities for developers building AI applications in an integrated environment.

Anthropic launches Claude Design, a new product for creating quick visuals

A nthropic announced on Friday that it’s launching Claude Design, a new experimental product that lets users create visuals like prototypes, slides, one-pagers, and more using Claude. The company says Claude Design is intended to help people like founders and product managers without a design background share their ideas more easily. With Claude Design, users describe what they want, and Claude will create an initial version. From there, users can refine the visuals with direct edits or requests. For example, you could ask Claude to “prototype a serene mobile meditation app. It should have calming typography, subtle nature-inspired colors, and a clean layout.” You could then tweak the colors, the size of the typography, or ask Claude to add a dark mode toggle. While Claude Design may initially seem like it’s looking to compete with popular design app Canva, which has just expanded its own AI capabilities, Anthropic said that it’s intended to complement it rather than replace it. The co...

Samsung shifted its focus to stable builds for One UI 8.5 over the past few days as the software appeared to enter the final phase for a stable rollout, with the Beta Program underway and the last update expected next week. Samsung opened the One UI 8.5 Beta Program for the Galaxy S25 series in December. The beta activity arrived in six countries, while users in other markets remained on One UI 8.0, based on the Android 16 operating system. Samsung rolled out nine beta updates to the Galaxy S25 series during the Beta Program. The last, 10th beta update could be pushed on April 20. The final rollout of the One UI 8.5 firmware was said to kickstart on April 30 in South Korea. This week, Samsung uploaded new stable builds to its server for Galaxy S series smartphones. The Galaxy S22 series had yet to grab any attention in terms of a major software update. The latest stable builds listed were: Galaxy S23 series – FZD7 Galaxy S24 series – DZD9 Galaxy S25 series – CZDB Galaxy S23 FE – GZD7 G...

OpenAI rolls out major Codex update with automation, plugins and computer use

-
O penAI has rolled out a major set of updates to Codex, positioning it as a tool for “almost everything” in modern software and creative workflows. These updates, now rolling out on the Codex desktop app, significantly expand what Codex can see, connect to, and act on—bringing it closer to a true AI work companion rather than a narrow coding assistant. One of the most notable changes is deeper tool integration. Codex now supports more than 90 plugins, allowing it to gather context and take action across the tools many teams already rely on. This includes documentation platforms, project management systems, code review tools, creative software, and deployment pipelines. Instead of switching contexts, users can increasingly orchestrate work directly through Codex, reducing friction across complex workflows. Automations can now run in the same thread, so Codex can pick up where it left off, with the original context intact. It can schedule future work and wake up automatically to continue...
