Did @reInventParties just get Sherlocked live on stage at #reInvent?

I love AWS #reInvent, I really do — but why do they have to make it so hard to get a direct link to a session? I'm here planning out my week with colleagues, and I want to send them the link to a cool session — no can do. We are reduced to copying and pasting session IDs, like *animals*.

My shortest #reInvent recommendations:

Lip balm. Seriously, pack extras.
Comfy shoes; there’s a lot of walking.
Dress in layers; there’s a huge day/night difference, but also indoors/outdoors.
Backpack beats shoulder bag.
Drink water.
Talk to people. The hallway track beats the keynote track.

If you go to the #reInvent website and click on Topics, you’ll see that the first item on the list is “#AI/ML”. Then you’ll notice that the next item is “Analytics,” and then you realise that actually, the list is sorted alphabetically. But why let such boring details stand in the way of a good story? Let's talk about how we can make #GenAI work for you. Hint: the key is #data. https://www.snaplogic.com/blog/autonomous-ai-agents-aws-reinvent

My co-host on the Enterprise Alchemists #podcast is a #reInvent sceptic, but I did my best to persuade him. What do you think, did I do a good enough job? Or what would you have added? https://www.buzzsprout.com/2387057/episodes/16193858

This JPMC presentation at #reinvent feels a bit overly rehearsed — which if anything emphasises just how good the AWS presenters are, to make their presentations feel as natural as they do.

I’m live-blogging the second big #reInvent keynote over on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/posts/snaplogic_awsreinvent-genai-activity-7270110442256031744-FGqB Today we are expecting the deeper dive into #data and #AI that Matt Garman (and Andy Jassy!) promised yesterday.

The room seems a bit bemused at the SageMaker HyperPod training plans. This just does not seem like a problem which that many companies have? #reInvent

These are some amazingly ugly slides for something that is supposed to be all about pretty visuals. #reInvent
