Amazon avslutar intern AI-topplista efter höga token-kostnader

Amazon har lagt ner en internt skapad AI-topplista vid namn Kirorank efter oro gällande ökande kostnader och missbruk. Beslutet följer liknande åtgärder hos andra stora teknikföretag som står inför höga AI-kostnader.

Amazon stängde ner Kirorank, en betasida som rankade anställda baserat på deras AI-användning. Verktyget hade varit i drift i endast några veckor innan det togs bort. Företagets representanter hänvisade till både skenande token-kostnader och ett fenomen kallat tokenmaxxing, där personal använde AI för småuppgifter i syfte att förbättra sin ranking.
