Amazon is in negotiations to acquire Israeli-founded AI startup Decart for about $7 billion, potentially marking one of Amazon's largest recent acquisitions and a significant exit for the Israeli tech scene. Decart develops AI technology for real-time video editing and interactive world simulation and has previously received early access to Amazon's AI chips.
