Old MacDonald had a farm… and today’s executives have an AI farm. But not every “animal” is the same. Most leaders are working with Generative AI (GenAI) — powerful but limited. Emerging quickly is Agentic AI — systems that can take initiative. And still further out is General AI (AGI) — the wildcard of AI’s future.

We are going to rock our first 5 Bytes edition (tech = bytes instead of bites…pretty clever!). Coming off of Auxiom’s first-ever Auxiom Community Appreciation Event (ACA), I’m feeling technologically inspired. Those of you who attended heard from amazing speakers like Scott Schonenberger of Bluewater Tech, Mykolas Rambus of Hush AI, our own Marcus Rebelo (CISO & Head of AI at Auxiom), and Lt. Col. USMC (ret.) Robert Darling!

This edition breaks down the three levels of AI, the costs they bring, and the leadership role only you can play.
