Key Takeaways

I'm Simon Hunt. I'm the chief product officer of Securonics. So, the way we're using generative AI and AI at the moment for our customers is about uh taking honorous difficult time-conuming tasks and making them shorter. So, helping people get to answers really quickly. Helping people sum to summarize data for different stakeholders like not everybody's a technologist. So, we use a lot of AI to make uh technical information consumable by business owners and generally to help people get to you position where they can save you know save themselves from hackers. We use the Amazon marketplace to sell our software. Um, and to be blunt because of the scale of the Amazon Salesforce. I mean, we love the fact we have all these new sales people working for us solving customer problems. So, it gives us scope. It gives us visibility globally and it helps with the whole sales process because people are used to consuming and buying things through Amazon marketplace and you know it smooths the wheels as it were when they buy it from buy our software from the marketplace as well. Amazon Q helps our developers write good code fast, helps with the acceleration there. And we use Amazon Bedrock to power all our AI systems for our customers. Using Bedrock allows us to keep all our data within the AWS perimeter. Our customers like that. We like that as well. AWS helps my company scale. Um, we're global. We're pentabyte scale. Uh, and without AWS, we couldn't achieve that. It would be very difficult to achieve that. I'd be building data centers all around the world. I'd be doing what Amazon does. So, that's what Amazon does for me. It helps me scale globally.
