Amazon.com’s (AMZN) server-chip design unit Annapurna Labs’ leader Gadi Hutt has reportedly left the company.
The Information reported, citing people familiar with the matter, that Hutt, a director of product and customer engineering, has left Amazon. The e-commerce giant acquired the Israeli chip startup Annapurna in 2015 for $350 million and Hutt has been one of the key spokespeople for the company’s Trainium chips, the report noted.
Amazon Trainium is a family of custom-designed AI accelerators developed by Amazon Web Services (AWS) for high-performance training and inference of deep learning and generative AI models. The Trainium business has grown rapidly in recent months, driven largely by Anthropic’s extensive use of the chips to power its Claude AI models.
