Amazon now adds Content Credentials to images created using Amazon Titan Image Generator v1 and v2 to increase transparency around AI-generated content. Content Credentials are based on an open technical specification developed and maintained by the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA), a cross-industry standards development organization.

C2PA metadata, similar to invisible watermarks, is included in images generated by Amazon Titan Image Generator by default. The metadata comprises of the model, the platform, and the task type used to generate the image. This inclusion allows people to easily verify the source and history (or, provenance) of images generated using Amazon Titan Image Generator, a foundation model that allows users to create realistic, studio-quality images using natural language prompts. To inspect the Content Credentials, you can drag and drop images generated using Amazon Titan Image Generator into Verify .

This feature is available at no additional charge for images generated using Amazon Titan Image Generator on Amazon Bedrock. To learn more, visit the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA) and read the Amazon Titan Image Generator documentation . To get started with Amazon Titan Image Generator in Amazon Bedrock, visit the Amazon Bedrock console .
 

The Amazon Time Sync Service now supports clock synchronization within microseconds of UTC on Amazon EC2 instances in the Asia Pacific (Malaysia) and US East (Ohio) regions.

Built on Amazon’s proven network infrastructure and the AWS Nitro System , customers can now access local, GPS-disciplined reference clocks on supported EC2 instances. These clocks can be used to more easily order application events, measure 1-way network latency, increase distributed application transaction speed, and incorporate in-region and cross-region scalability features while also simultaneously simplifying technical designs. This capability is an improvement over many on-premises time solutions, and it is the first microsecond-range time service offered by any cloud provider. Additionally, you can audit your clock accuracy from your instance to measure and monitor the expected microsecond-range accuracy. Customers already using the Amazon Time Sync Service on supported instances will see improved clock accuracy automatically, without needing to adjust their AMI or NTP client settings. Customers can also use standard PTP clients and configure a new PTP Hardware Clock (PHC) to get the best accuracy possible. Both NTP and PTP can be used without needing any updates to VPC configurations.

Amazon Time Sync’s microsecond-accurate time is available starting today in US East (Ohio), Asia Pacific (Malaysia), as well as additional regions on supported EC2 instance types . We will be expanding support to more AWS Regions. There is no additional charge for using this service.

Configuration instructions, and more information on the Amazon Time Sync Service, are available in the EC2 User Guide .
