                              • Co‑Pilots to Agents: An Executive Guide to AI

                                In this episode, host Michael Bernzweig talks with Amir Elion, CEO of Think Big Leaders and former AWS innovation leader, about how executives should think about AI agents and generative AI strategy. Amir explains why intelligence is becoming a cheap, scalable commodity, outlines the growing capabilities across text, code, vision, audio, data, and physical systems, and introduces a three‑pillar framework for value: productivity, new customer value, and business model disruption. He also clarifies the distinction between co‑pilots, AI‑powered workflows, and true autonomous agents and agent teams, and shares implementation considerations and governance guardrails leaders need to have in place.

                                In this episode:
