Amazon Lex is a service for building conversational interfaces into any application using voice and text. With Amazon Lex, you can quickly and easily build conversational bots (chatbots), virtual agents, and interactive voice response (IVR) systems. By leveraging foundation models (FMs) to enhance its natural language understanding capabilities, Lex can now resolve slot values in user utterances with greater accuracy. The Assisted Slot Resolution feature uses the advanced reasoning capabilities of FMs to improve accuracy and ultimately a better customer experience.

We are pleased to offer a preview of the QnAIntent in Amazon Lex. The QnAIntent allows developers to securely connect foundation models (FM) to company data for Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG). By providing access to company data, FMs generate more relevant, accurate, and contextual responses. The QnA Intent can be used with new or existing Lex bots to automate frequently asked questions (FAQs) through text and voice channels, such as Amazon Connect.
