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.
I am a full-stack web developer (php, laravel, javascript) and the creator of Meerkad https://meerkad.com. I started this Remote Job Board Community to connect companies with the current and hopeful remote working people from all over the world.
