The product packages OpenAI frontier models inside an AWS-native agent runtime with built-in identity, permissions, state management, logging, and governance — all running within a customer's VPC. The announcement follows an amended Microsoft-OpenAI agreement that ended Azure's exclusivity on OpenAI models. The interview covers how this offering differs from Amazon's existing AgentCore primitives, why local agent environments like Codex are easier to start with but cloud is the end state, the role of Trainium chips, and how both companies see enterprise demand for managed agentic workflows as a massive untapped opportunity. Altman frames OpenAI as an 'intelligence factory' and argues the model-harness integration is the key value layer going forward. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
