NoteThe source directly confirms all key fields: (1) person is Peter DeSantis, (2) org is Amazon, (3) role matches the description of leading AI models, custom silicon, and quantum computing (the exact title 'SVP' is not explicitly stated in the source, but the role description is accurate), and (4) startDate of 2025 is consistent with the announcement being made in early 2025 as a current/recent organizational change. The source is Andy Jassy's official leadership announcement, making it a highly authoritative primary source. The role description in the record aligns with what the source describes: 'drives our most expansive AI models (e.g. Nova—and the team we've called "AGI"), silicon development (e.g. Graviton, Trainium, Nitro), and quantum computing.'
