Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is backing a new AI startup called Project Prometheus where he will help manage the company as its co-CEO, according to a report by New York Times. The new startup is coming out with a $6.2 billion funding, part of which is coming from Bezos.
Notably, this is the first time when Bezos is taking a formal operational role in a company ever since he stepped down as the CEO of Amazon in July, 2021. While Bezos is highly involved at his space startup Blue Origin, his official title at the company is that of founder.
