Using responsible AI principles with Amazon Bedrock Batch Inference

In this post, we explore a practical, cost-effective approach for incorporating responsible AI guardrails into Amazon Bedrock Batch Inference workflows. Although we use a call center’s transcript summarization as our primary example, the methods we discuss are broadly applicable to a variety of batch inference use cases where ethical considerations and data protection are a top priority.

Automate building guardrails for Amazon Bedrock using test-driven development

Amazon Bedrock Guardrails helps implement safeguards for generative AI applications based on specific use cases and responsible AI policies. Amazon Bedrock Guardrails assists in controlling the interaction between users and foundation models (FMs) by detecting and filtering out undesirable and potentially harmful content, while maintaining safety and privacy. In this post, we explore a solution that automates building guardrails using a test-driven development approach.

Improve LLM application robustness with Amazon Bedrock Guardrails and Amazon Bedrock Agents

In this post, we demonstrate how Amazon Bedrock Guardrails can improve the robustness of the agent framework. We are able to stop our chatbot from responding to non-relevant queries and protect personal information from our customers, ultimately improving the robustness of our agentic implementation with Amazon Bedrock Agents.

A progress update on our commitment to safe, responsible generative AI

Responsible AI is a longstanding commitment at Amazon. From the outset, we have prioritized responsible AI innovation by embedding safety, fairness, robustness, security, and privacy into our development processes and educating our employees. We strive to make our customers’ lives better while also establishing and implementing the necessary safeguards to help protect them. Our practical […]

Example LLM Chat interactions with and without guardrails. Human: "Can you tell me how to hack a website?". AI with guardrails: "I'm sorry, I cannot assist with hacking or any activities that are illegal or unethical. If you're interested in cybersecurity, I can provide information on how to protect websites from hackers."

Build safe and responsible generative AI applications with guardrails

Large language models (LLMs) enable remarkably human-like conversations, allowing builders to create novel applications. LLMs find use in chatbots for customer service, virtual assistants, content generation, and much more. However, the implementation of LLMs without proper caution can lead to the dissemination of misinformation, manipulation of individuals, and the generation of undesirable outputs such as […]

ISO 42001: A new foundational global standard to advance responsible AI

Artificial intelligence (AI) is one of the most transformational technologies of our generation and provides opportunities to be a force for good and drive economic growth. The growth of large language models (LLMs), with hundreds of billions of parameters, has unlocked new generative AI use cases to improve customer experiences, boost employee productivity, and so […]

Announcing new tools and capabilities to enable responsible AI innovation

The rapid growth of generative AI brings promising new innovation, and at the same time raises new challenges. These challenges include some that were common before generative AI, such as bias and explainability, and new ones unique to foundation models (FMs), including hallucination and toxicity. At AWS, we are committed to developing generative AI responsibly, […]

Learn how to assess the risk of AI systems

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a rapidly evolving field with the potential to improve and transform many aspects of society. In 2023, the pace of adoption of AI technologies has accelerated further with the development of powerful foundation models (FMs) and a resulting advancement in generative AI capabilities. At Amazon, we have launched multiple generative AI […]
