I love Smartsheets. I see it as a powerful tool. However, I learned today my Company will no longer allow anyone to get a license. As of April 2025, anyone using Smartsheet will no longer be allowed to have this application. It makes me sad.

TL;DR: Amazon Web Services (AWS) is focused on providing customers choice and making it easy and secure for them to use generative AI across their business.
I often get asked what Amazon Web Services (AWS) has to offer in the GenAI space. The answer is the most flexibility and options for your LLM choice coupled with great governance and security. In addition to this Amazon Q was launched last week that offers so many ready to play advantages if you are looking for a great Gen AI tool.

When Generative AI first took off, everyone thought Microsoft Azure had the most compelling offering, thanks to their collaboration with Open AI. Amazon has caught up. The Claude offerings on AWS are today as good as Open AI’s offerings on Azure, and many would argue the features on AWS bedrock are better. AWS’ excellence with customer service and ease of use will serve them well long term. Their cloud offering has a high chance of winning the Generative AI race. And in retail, their gross margins should improve now that they have achieved world domination and driven a bunch of their competitors out of the market - and feel less price pressure (sad but true). I invested a bunch of money in Amazon today.
🤖AI News (30 sec read)
AWS has hit a whopping $100 billion run rate, contributing 76% to Amazon's profits in the last decade.
Azure leads Microsoft's revenue, growing 30% annually, while Google's cloud grew 25% in Q4.
These giants added $15 billion in new revenue last quarter.
📈Business Impact:
The escalating adoption of AI workloads (and their demanding machine learning models) in the cloud underscores a transformative trend, with businesses relying on the cloud for critical operations, shaping the future landscape of technology investments.
Reclaiming infrastructure in-house is a bold move only a few are making.
The clouds, it seems, will continue their ascent.
