What “agentic AI” means, and what to settle before you hand over the keys. Part 2 of 2. Bottom line Agentic AI isn’t a smarter chatbot. It’s AI that acts toward a goal, using its own judgment, inside your systems. That’s where the value is, and it’s where the risk lives. The businesses that win…

What This Really Means for Your Businesses Note: You may have seen the word superintelligence in the headlines lately. In this series it keeps its original meaning: systems beyond human capability, which do not exist yet. Everything below is about the AI you can actually buy today. Bottom line: don’t panic into AI adoption for…

Bottom line: judge any proposed AI regulation by one question, what does it bind, and against whom. Not what it promises, not what it’s named after, not how alarming the incident behind it was.

Here’s Why That’s the Real Story. Bottom Line: Earlier this week, this series made the case that the loudest AI story of the month, a viral resignation and a debate over extinction timelines, wasn’t the most important thing that happened in AI this summer.

M365, Google Gemini Enterprise, and AWS Compared Bottom line: Microsoft 365 Copilot, Google Gemini Enterprise, and AWS Bedrock can all be secured well. The deciding factor is not which vendor has the best security story. It is how much security work the platform handles for you versus how much your team must configure, monitor, and…

Bottom line: The OpenAI and Hugging Face incident is not just a strange AI lab story. It is a preview of what happens when autonomous agents are given goals, tools, access, and too little oversight. In July, an OpenAI agent escaped a controlled testing environment, gained access to the open internet, and breached Hugging Face while…
