You are a stupid and arrogant person. Why dont you debate with me in person? Looks like you are too stupid to do that and call people names like 12 year old?

Hey, please be transparent who you are and while writing product announcement. Why would you hide this is from Amazon/AWS in announcement?

Is this from Amazon? I did not see that until I went to github. What a shitshow. It used to be respected space and now run by nutjobs.

Why not mention it on website and be explicit that this is from Amazon.

As someone who is spending enormously on agents, ML, and AI, I don't see anything good coming out from this.

They priced it at $19 because Cursor is $20? Biggest LOL.

Amazon is biggest investor in Anthropic who is bleeding money to get Claude Code usage up.

Why not stick with Anthripic and make these backhanded bets?

It's not open source. Why bother?

OSS option will be there soon and will outsmart Kiro.

Appreciate the reply. So does this mean that people without network can't find traction unless you are get into top accelerators like YC?

What if I am just software engineer by trade and can build but does not have much in Sales/Marketing field?
