That was during the period Amazon started investing heavily in agents. Sivasubramanian also cited analyst research showing only 17% of organizations have successfully deployed AI agents into production. The number comes from the company that sells the cloud infrastructure those agents run on, not from an outside skeptic.\n\nThat context matters. The pitch from AWS, Microsoft, and Google has been that agents are already transforming how software gets built and run. If Amazon's own teams, with unlimited internal AWS resources, shipped fewer than one in ten prototypes, smaller companies without that engineering depth are likely facing worse odds, not better ones.\n\nVendors rarely lead with their failure rate. This one did, and it is worth remembering the next time a demo gets called production-ready.","[\"ai-agents\",\"aws\",\"enterprise-ai\"]","2026-09-24T14:14:15.000Z","2026-09-24T15:16:53.215Z","2026-09-24T15:16:58.824Z","published",null,[24],{"id":25,"reviewer":26,"round":27,"reason":28,"status":29},"editor-r1","editor",1,"Convert the relative date reference 'Wednesday' to an absolute date before publishing.","resolved","ai",[32,33,34],"ai-agents","aws","enterprise-ai",[36],{"name":37,"url":38},"The Next Web","https:\u002F\u002Fthenextweb.com\u002Fnews\u002Faws-swami-sivasubramanian-ai-agents-production-kiro-humanx",0,{"sections":41},[42,46,51,56,61,66,71,76,81,86,91,96,101,106],{"name":43,"slug":30,"count":44,"latest_published_at":45},"AI",4432,"2026-09-24T16:32:42.000Z",{"name":47,"slug":48,"count":49,"latest_published_at":50},"Security","security",724,"2026-09-24T04:00:00.000Z",{"name":52,"slug":53,"count":54,"latest_published_at":55},"Policy","policy",384,"2026-09-24T15:44:28.000Z",{"name":57,"slug":58,"count":59,"latest_published_at":60},"Deals","deals",232,"2026-09-24T14:00:29.000Z",{"name":62,"slug":63,"count":64,"latest_published_at":65},"Hardware","hardware",178,"2026-09-24T15:24:48.000Z",{"name":67,"slug":68,"count":69,"latest_published_at":70},"Science","science",137,"2026-09-24T16:38:26.000Z",{"name":72,"slug":73,"count":74,"latest_published_at":75},"Consumer Tech","consumer-tech",124,"2026-09-24T16:29:31.000Z",{"name":77,"slug":78,"count":79,"latest_published_at":80},"Software","software",85,"2026-09-23T20:00:00.000Z",{"name":82,"slug":83,"count":84,"latest_published_at":85},"Dev Tools","dev-tools",79,"2026-09-22T22:21:13.000Z",{"name":87,"slug":88,"count":89,"latest_published_at":90},"Startups","startups",67,"2026-09-24T14:31:00.000Z",{"name":92,"slug":93,"count":94,"latest_published_at":95},"Gaming","gaming",45,"2026-09-22T15:35:06.000Z",{"name":97,"slug":98,"count":99,"latest_published_at":100},"General","general",43,"2026-09-21T23:48:56.000Z",{"name":102,"slug":103,"count":104,"latest_published_at":105},"Reviews","reviews",29,"2026-09-24T13:00:00.000Z",{"name":107,"slug":108,"count":109,"latest_published_at":110},"How-To","how-to",6,"2026-06-16T09:00:00.000Z"]
