Just applied to the new AWS Startups: Building with Llama program. It’s a 6-month initiative by AWS and Meta to help startups build with open-source LLMs.

What’s in it: - $200K in AWS credits - Deep-dive support for Llama fine-tuning - Infra help: latency, scaling, optimization - 1:1 expert sessions with AWS & Meta engineers - Community of AI-first startups

Still a lot of friction in getting LLMs into production reliably — especially when optimizing for speed and cost. This looks like a serious push to help with that.

Applications close August 8.
