Recently, according to The New York Times, Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon, has decided to return as CEO four years after stepping down from his position at Amazon, taking on the role of co-CEO of a newly established artificial intelligence startup called "Project Prometheus." The other co-founder and co-CEO of the project is well-known tech executive Vivek Vaidya, who previously worked at Google's "Moonshot Factory" and founded the health technology company Verily.

"Project Prometheus" focuses on developing artificial intelligence technologies for engineering and manufacturing across various fields. It is reported that this startup has already raised up to 6.2 billion dollars in funding, an amount that exceeds the funds many companies can raise throughout their entire existence. Although the exact founding date of the company is unclear, it has already recruited about 100 employees, many of whom come from well-known companies such as OpenAI, DeepMind, and Meta.

Details about "Project Prometheus" remain limited, and Bezos has not revealed the company's specific location or how its technology works. Although Bezos has been actively involved in the operations of his space company Blue Origin over the years, this time he returning to the CEO role marks his first formal position since leaving Amazon.

Now, Bezos and Vaidya will join the competitive artificial intelligence market, as huge amounts of money continue to flow into competitors like OpenAI, and concerns have begun to arise about the financial sustainability of the artificial intelligence industry. Renowned investor Michael Burry recently bet against Palantir and Nvidia stocks by investing 1 billion dollars, predicting a housing crisis similar to the one in 2008, and accused some large tech companies of using accounting tricks to "artificially inflate profits."
