> The same goes for feature releases. If the vast bulk of all new feature releases are geared towards GenAI, it implicitly means AWS is rerouting investments from classic infrastructure to shiny GenAI. It means that the products I love get smaller budgets. It means that the products I use will not get the next feature I want, or only at a slower pace.

I think the article does hyperbolize a bit, but this seems like a hard truth. Unless AWS has hired an entirely new swathe of AI-focused engineering talent, or if their public face at events is significantly disconnected from where they're spending their real money.
