💨 Abstract
Amazon announced that Uber is expanding its AWS cloud services contract to use more of Amazon's chips for ride-sharing features. Uber will use AWS's Graviton and trial Trainium3, AWS's AI chip competing with Nvidia. This move is seen as a strategic win for Amazon over competitors Google and Oracle. Uber had previously planned to move its IT infrastructure to Oracle and Google's clouds but is now increasing its reliance on AWS, particularly for AI chips.
