During an appearance on CNBC-TV18 in India in late June 2026, Jassy described AI as "the most transformative technology of our lifetime" and said it will change every customer experience. He acknowledged that AI will replace some existing jobs but argued it will also create new ones, some of which "we haven't even figured out yet." Jassy stated that Amazon was increasing its investment commitment in India to a total of $48 billion by 2030, and said that quick commerce, which started in India, will expand to "virtually every marketplace" Amazon operates in. On the company's Q1 2026 earnings call in April, Jassy said Amazon's AI revenue run rate from AWS has reached over $15 billion, which he said is "nearly 260 times larger" than AWS's revenue run rate three years after its launch. He discussed Amazon's custom Tranium chips, saying they are expected to "save us tens of billions of dollars of capex each year" versus relying on other companies' chips for inference. Jassy described the current AI era as a "once-in-a-lifetime opportunity" and said he expects significant capital investment to pursue it.
