AWS recently announced the launch of three new AI agents at an event, aimed at improving software development and operations efficiency. The most notable is "Kiro," an autonomous agent that can work continuously for several days, learning user preferences and independently completing complex tasks.

Kiro is designed based on AWS's same-named coding tool released this year, primarily used to generate production-ready operational code. During the programming process, Kiro interacts with human users, seeking confirmation or corrections of its assumptions. This process helps Kiro gradually establish clear development standards and then proceed with autonomous programming.

In addition to Kiro, AWS also launched two other agents. The first is the "AWS Security Agent," which automatically identifies security risks during the coding process and tests them after the code is written, providing repair suggestions. The second, the "DevOps Agent," focuses on automated performance testing of new code and ensuring compatibility with existing software, hardware, and cloud environments.

AWS CEO Matt Garman stated at the event that Kiro can automatically plan and execute work by receiving complex tasks from a to-do list. He also mentioned that Kiro has persistent context across sessions, meaning it can remember task objectives and will not forget them over time.
