  Certified AI Dev (@MisterPrashant) reported 3 minutes ago

  This solution to this problem is AI traffic monetization. If you are an owner of a platform that provides some valuable data, you can put the data behind a paywall for the AI traffic by charging the bot fraction of a penny for using their content. x402 Payment Required protocol tells the bot that the content requires payment and the bot settles the transaction quickly on a stable coin at which point the content becomes accessible. This way,people running their search bots does not require subscription to 10 different services and can easily access data from anywhere at a very minimal cost and the owners of the sites also win as the traffic count to their paywalled site will generate income. This is not a concept. The framework to build this is already available in @awscloud today.

  @LayoffAI During the last 12 months Amazon AWS had outages directly caused by initiatives from the AI group (with associated revenue impact). No surprise they are down sizing the snake oil sales men group.

  @AWSSupport Again there is a mass wave of suspensions like in May I'm assuming in error as I've been on this platform for over 10 years and this seems to be happen more frequently. Emails from mturk-noreply havent worked in a long time,any updates on this situation @amazonmturk

  Day 1 : "How to Scale an App to 10 Million Users on AWS" If I have to design a system for 10 million users, I won't build everything on Day 1 because it will add unnecessary complexity and cost. I'll start simple with one application server and one database. As traffic grows, if the server starts reaching its CPU, memory, or storage limits, I'll first scale vertically by moving to a bigger instance. Once that is not enough, I'll separate the backend and database so both can scale independently. To avoid a single point of failure, I'll deploy the application across multiple Availability Zones and put a Load Balancer in front so if one server or AZ goes down, traffic is automatically routed to healthy servers. As the number of users keeps increasing, I'll make my application stateless by storing sessions in Redis. This allows me to add multiple application servers behind the Load Balancer and scale horizontally. If my database starts getting overloaded with reads, I'll use Redis to cache frequently accessed data and add read replicas to distribute read traffic. For static assets like images, CSS, and JavaScript, I'll store them in Amazon S3 and serve them through CloudFront so requests don't keep hitting my application servers. If traffic suddenly spikes during sales or events, I'll enable Auto Scaling with CloudWatch metrics so AWS automatically adds or removes servers based on demand. As the application becomes larger, I'll split the monolith into microservices. This allows each service, like authentication, payments, or notifications, to scale independently instead of scaling the entire application. If the database becomes the bottleneck, especially for write operations, I'll use sharding or federation depending on the data and business requirements. Finally, when users are spread across the world, I'll deploy the application in multiple AWS Regions to reduce latency and improve availability. My approach is always the same: find the bottleneck, solve that bottleneck, and only introduce more complexity when the current architecture can no longer handle the traffic.

  @darkosubotica @awscloud @AWSSupport Thanks Darko. I'm keen to be involved. I'm aware there are challenges. A billing bug shouldn't cause a global outage or delete backups. I believe these are solvable. I don't want the possibility of financial ruin from a mistake or hack. Will DM.

  @ZZiata15569 @awscloud I have billing and budget alerts set up with AWS already. Main problem with a lot of tools I’ve used is too much noise in the alerts vs AWS option. Still, I think every AWS customer gets at least 1 surprise lol… part of initiation (onboarding?)

  I am (unfortunately) dealing with @googlecloud and @awscloud and what I am noticing is that in months they are unable so solve any kind of problem, it’s like being bounced back by ai replies that are sold like assistance from humans, saying that they are “working on that” but nothing changes in months and also replies are all the same.. idk if they are experiencing a shortage in human labor or what’s going on but the experience has become worse than ever

  Peter DeSantis talking at #agenticaisummit There will NOT be one AI chip type. If multiple AI chips take multiple years to bring to market, you have to be making assumptions about model requirements in that time frame. It's a systems problem, including the network. Constraint drives innovation. Future is bright and built together. Peter DeSantis SVP, Foundational AI Models, Custom Silicon, Quantum Computing, Amazon @awscloud @amazon @BerkeleyRDI

  Unfortunately although they appear to be awesome people BrambleCFD is turning out to not be that hot. The main problem is the relationships/what they do of all the different settings is ridiculously opaque. There is no documentation. Their solution is to try to explain things in a video call, and if you need help, you ask for it, which it takes a week or more to get any kind of answer from an actual human, not because they are doing anything wrong but that's just not a good system. It's a long long way from the useability of simscale. I did however uncover an option that might be reasonably good, which is a virtual machine that I pay for the core-hours on. In many ways this is better. I can work directly with openFOAM and one of the front ends on a high powered linux computer with hundreds of gigs of ram and 96 high powered cores, and still only pay for what I use, theoretically. The openFOAM foundation has a system worked out ad directly offers the service, unfortunately they in turn use the amazon AWS or the microsoft Azure system, but what can you do. There are other companies that do similar things, but they probably aren't as well done as the one from the actual foundation. I think I'll try that one first. Having an AI in a harness on the machine is probably going to be indispensable, but I'll be using it primarily as a learning tool rather than asking it to do everything for me. I have been able to set up CowAgent, which is kind of basic but seems to work ok, with DeepSeek. A "harness" allows the AI to run commands on your computer and read the output automatically, as well as the other things web chat stuff can do. Secondly, it can store information in files and run the AI in a loop, doing many inferences one after the other, thus getting far more done than a web chat can (actually they might do something similar now IDK but they don't seem to).

  @AWSSupport Still NO resolution after 7 days! Case ID: 17849863000462 Account hold cleared days ago, but CloudFront is STILL locked due to a backend flag sync issue. @AWSSupport keeps passing the buck. Assign a supervisor to clear this flag NOW! @awscloud #AWS #CloudFront #AWSCloud

  The downfall of Storj Labs (bankruptcy): - launches Storj in 2014 to build a decentralised alternative to cloud storage - promises a blockchain based competitor to Amazon S3. - attracts thousands of node operators across the world - raises around $35 million in funding - secures roughly $30 million through its 2017 token sale - spends years building its decentralised storage network - the DePIN business model proves difficult to scale profitably 2021: - $STORJ reaches its all time high 2022–2025: - the token enters a prolonged decline - node operators report declining rewards and operational issues - Storj begins selling non-core assets and right sizing operations October 2025: - Inveniam Capital Partners acquires Storj Labs - the acquisition is expected to strengthen the company's future - financial pressures remain unresolved July 2026: - Storj Labs files for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection - the company says legacy liabilities can no longer be outgrown - assets and liabilities are estimated between $1 million and $10 million > operations > customer services > the storage network continue running - Inveniam backs the restructuring process - Storj proposes a plan that could give STORJ token holders equity in the reorganised company - $STORJ falls another 14–15% after the bankruptcy announcement - the token is down roughly 99% from its 2021 all time high

  @opsolutehq @awscloud Otherwise, I believe it's not fully viable for full-range products. Example of Lovable: they have hundreds of potential use cases. That's where they are on credit-based systems rather than outcome-based systems, because you can't narrow down the overall cafeteria of use cases.
