Stability AI opts for AWS as its selected Cloud provider to build and scale its Artificial Intelligence for the future

Amazon Web Services, Inc. (AWS), an Amazon.com, Inc. company announced that Stability AI, a community-driven, open-source artificial intelligence (AI) company, has opted for AWS as its selected cloud provider to build and scale its AI models for image, audio, video, language, and 3D content generation. Stability AI uses Amazon SageMaker (AWS’s end-to-end machine learning service), including AWS’s proven-source generative AI models. Additionally, Stability AI will partner with AWS to make its open-source tools and models available to students, start-ups, researchers, and enterprises across the globe.

Stability AI extends generative AI models that create text, audio, video, images, code, and more from simple text guidelines. Generative AI or foundational models—models that are adaptable to a range of tasks in domains such as language, image, audio, and video – require a high-performance compute cluster with thousands of GPUs or AWS Trainium chips, advanced expertise, and months of training.

Stability AI will use Amazon SageMaker to build and train machine learning models, lowering training time and costs by 58% compared to self-managed machine learning infrastructure. The business is provisioning one of the largest clusters of machine learning instances to operate its open-source models on AWS using Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2), making it simpler for developers to access those models. Going forward, Stability AI plans to use AWS machine learning and AI services to build and train future models to achieve the best performance at the lowest cost. Stability AI will also make its open-source models available on Amazon SageMaker JumpStart, the model hub of Amazon SageMaker, for all AWS customers.

Stability AI, the mission is to create the foundation to initiate humanity’s potential through AI, said Emad Mostaque, founder, and CEO of Stability AI.

AWS has played an inherent part in scaling its open-source foundation models across modalities. The company is delighted to operate these models on Amazon SageMaker to facilitate tens of thousands of developers and millions of users to leverage the power of AI with a robust set of devices, the founder, and CEO said.

The company looks ahead to considering the remarkable ideas that developers build and customers design and implement using collective intelligence and augmented technology, Mostaque added.

Only AWS offers the scale, reliability, and efficiency to deliver the next generation of AI with Stability AI, which will enable billions of people to create stunning art within seconds, said Bratin Saha, vice president of Machine Learning and AI Services at Amazon.

Amazon SageMaker will help Stability AI scale its use of machine learning with end-to-end tooling, empowering developers to innovate AI applications and dream up new use cases, Saha said.

Saha added that Amazon is excited to help them invent new products, services, and experiences for the world with the proven performance of one of the largest-ever clusters of machine learning instances in the cloud.
