AWS Certified AI Practitioner AIF-C01 Release Date

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation (AWS AI documents):

Overfitting occurs when an ML model learns patterns too closely from training data, including noise, and fails to generalize to unseen data. According to AWS ML fundamentals, a key indicator of overfitting is high training accuracy combined with reduced accuracy on new or test data.

Option A directly reflects this behavior: the model performs well during training but loses accuracy when evaluated on new data, which is a textbook symptom of overfitting.

Why the other options are not overfitting:

B describes an under-featured model (underfitting risk).

C indicates poor data representativeness, not overfitting.

D reflects limited feature selection, which may lead to underfitting or bias, not overfitting.

The correct answer is B because Amazon CloudWatch provides monitoring capabilities that include tracking usage metrics for Amazon Comprehend endpoints, such as invocation counts. You can configure CloudWatch to collect these metrics and create custom dashboards or alarms to report when an endpoint has zero usage over a period (e.g., 15 days).

From AWS documentation:

"Amazon CloudWatch enables you to collect and track metrics for Comprehend endpoints, create alarms, and automatically react to changes in your AWS resources."

This allows automated reporting and alerting for underused or idle endpoints.

Explanation of other options:

A. AWS Trusted Advisor focuses on general AWS resource optimization, security, and limits but does not track endpoint usage.

C. AWS CloudTrail tracks API calls but does not provide time-based monitoring or usage analysis over time.

D. AWS Config is used to track configuration changes and compliance, not endpoint usage metrics.
