He passed away in Louisville, KY from natural causes that were unknown at the time.  Tony’s vast contributions to the company, employees and the technology industry will endure for years to come.

Article 3: Future Trends Every MSP Must Prepare for in 2025 and Beyond 1. AI-Driven, Fully Autonomous Network Optimization By 2027, MSPs will move toward self-optimizing, AI-driven networks that require minimal manual intervention. ✅ AI-powered traffic management will dynamically adjust bandwidth, power levels, and access point configurations. 2. 5G, 7G, and OpenRAN Convergence Wi-Fi and mobile networks will fully integrate, meaning MSPs will need expertise in hybrid networking solutions. ✅ Unified management platforms will help seamlessly connect Wi-Fi, fiber, and 5G/7G services. 3. Zero Trust Security Across All Customer Networks With rising cyber threats, MSPs must enforce Zero Trust architectures across all managed services. ✅ Every device, user, and connection will require verification—no automatic trust. ✅ AI-driven threat detection will identify and isolate compromised devices instantly. 4. Industry-Specific Wi-Fi & Networking Solutions Customers will demand tailored solutions—whether for healthcare, hospitality, retail, or finance. ✅ MSPs will need to offer custom SLAs and service models based on industry needs. 5. Sustainable, Energy-Efficient Networking Green networking will be a major differentiator as companies seek low-power, sustainable network solutions. ✅ MSPs must adopt power-efficient Wi-Fi APs, dynamic power scaling, and carbon-neutral data centers. The Future is Resilient—Are You Ready? By embracing AI, automation, security, and network intelligence, MSPs can stay competitive and future-proof their services. #FutureOfMSPs #AI #ManagedWiFi #Cybersecurity #ZeroTrust #CallTek #ChannelPartners

🚨 AI Isn’t as Smart as You Think—Here’s Why Everyone’s freaking out about AI taking over—jobs, industries, maybe even the world. But before we all bow down to our new robot overlords, let me ask you this: If AI is so advanced, why can’t it even generate an image of a left-handed person writing? Seriously. Try it. The results are hilariously bad. Here’s the thing: AI isn’t actually “thinking.” It’s just pattern-matching—pulling from whatever it sees most often on the internet. And because most people are right-handed, AI just assumes lefties don’t exist. That’s it. It’s not problem-solving, it’s not innovating, it’s just recycling the most common information. Yet people are trusting it blindly. “Well, AI said it, so it must be true!” Yeah? AI also thinks left-handed people aren’t real. Maybe—just maybe—we should start questioning its limitations before we start handing it critical decisions. AI is a tool, not a genius. It’s only as good as the data it’s trained on. If we forget that, we risk making some pretty dumb mistakes. Let’s be smarter than the machines. #AI #MachineLearning #CallTek #LLM #CriticalThinking #TechFails #Chatgpt #Grok #Deepseek

Alright, let’s talk about AI security—or, as I like to call it: "How to Accidentally Leak Your Entire Business Plan and Still Pay for the Privilege." Right now, companies are jumping headfirst into AI like it’s a Black Friday sale at Best Buy. AI agents are handling workflows, AI APIs are processing spreadsheets, and everyone’s plugging into OpenAI, Gemini, and Anthropic like they’re some kind of all-knowing oracle. And you know what? AI is amazing. Until you realize you have no clue what’s happening to your data. Does AI "Learn" from Your Data? Yeah… Maybe. Probably. Who Knows? Listen, nobody reads the fine print anymore. AI companies know this. That’s why they slap a “We take privacy seriously” sticker on their website and call it a day. Here’s the reality: 🛑 If You’re Using AI APIs (Enterprise & Business Users) OpenAI says API data isn’t used to train models. Great! But unless you have a zero-retention contract, they still store your inputs for "monitoring and debugging." And guess what? They never say for how long. 💬 If You’re Using ChatGPT (Free & Pro Users) Unless you opt out, your prompts ARE used to train their AI. That means every time you ask it to analyze sales data, summarize contracts, or process customer information, OpenAI gets a free lesson in your business. AI APIs: The Digital Equivalent of Leaving Your Front Door Open Everyone’s out here shoving AI into every business process without even thinking. And before you say, “Well, we have security measures in place!”—let me ask you: Are you actually tracking what your AI is doing with your data? Or are you just assuming everything’s fine because a tech company with a 40-page Terms of Service said, “Trust us”? The Solution: Own Your AI or Be Owned by It Look, if you’re serious about security, stop blindly trusting third-party AI models. Run your own private, isolated AI. 🔒 Host AI models on your own infrastructure. - Deploy Llama 3, Mistral, or Claude on your private cloud or data center. No data leaks, no external monitoring, you control everything. 🔒 Limit AI access to only what it needs. - You wouldn’t give your intern full access to payroll, HR, and financials, right? So why the hell are you letting AI touch everything? 🔒 Monitor every request. - What’s going in? What’s coming out? You should know every single data flow AI is involved in. 🔒 Get AI that won’t betray you. - If you want AI that doesn’t report back to Big Tech, you need a private, isolated AI model built for security. Final Thoughts: If You Need a Private AI, Talk to Me. I run CallTek, and we build secure, private AI solutions for businesses that actually give a damn about data security. Because at the end of the day, you either own your AI, or your AI owns you. #AI #CyberSecurity #DataPrivacy #AIAgents #AIAPIs #PrivateAI #CloudComputing #BusinessSecurity #CallTek #AIAutomation #DataProtection
