Mid-market firms winning with AI focus on efficiency.

One defense contractor expects 25% more RFP proposals with AI, boosting output and competitiveness without extra headcount.

Sharing confidential data with public AI risks exposure.

Law firms need client approval, and most say no.

Secure, self-hosted AI keeps control. In the mid-market, trust is vital.

Protecting it should be part of every AI strategy.

Data readiness is the silent AI killer.

Most companies want AI.

But they’re not ready for it.

Garbage in, garbage out.

You have to clean the data before AI can deliver value.

Do we have the pieces to truly build agentic AI?

The biggest one is here.
MCP, Model Context Protocol.
It’s how we talk to models.

Like APIs made software accessible, MCP makes models available across the internet.

And that rollout started in the first half of this year.

This is what model self-improvement could look like. Not there yet but it's coming this year.

The fact that CEO Integrity is even a category here speaks volumes.

Can you grow without hiring? With AI, yes, if you deploy it strategically. In this month’s Barefoot Bytes, I share a step-by-step playbook to roll out AI that actually drives ROI.

Real use cases, real adoption, real results.

Right now, using AI takes effort.

You still have to ask the right questions. Pick the right tool. Know where to look.

But not for long.

We’re headed toward an assistant who knows what you want, where to get it, and how to act.

We’re in the awkward middle.

But not for much longer.

This should start in 1st grade but progress nonetheless

Everyone’s adding AI to old systems.

But the real edge?
Start from scratch.

If you built an escrow business today, it’d be 98% AI and 10x more efficient.

And that’s what legacy companies should fear most.

This is a meaningful milestone.

AI is now autonomously adding to our scientific corpus.

Think about what this will look like at scale.

The AI gold rush is here.

But don’t forget the tools that already work.

Machine learning still offers massive value—if you’re asking the right questions.

Start with this:
What would be valuable if you could predict it?

AlphaEvolve has made new mathematical discoveries - this is a milestone in the journey towards AGI.

"The system has already made several mathematical discoveries, including finding the first improvement on Strassen's algorithm from 1969."

We teach reading, writing, and math, why not AI?

250+ tech leaders just called to make CS & AI mandatory in high schools.

Not an elective.
Not just for STEM kids.
Required. For all.

In the age of AI, literacy isn’t optional—it’s foundational.
