Anunta: Why MSPs Must “Start Tinkering” with AI, Podcast

“Start tinkering. You've got to start somewhere—and now is the time,” says Jacci Robinson, Vice President – Go-to-Market & Growth (North America) at Anunta. At the MSP Summit in Orlando, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, sat down with Robinson after her panel appearance to discuss how MSPs can begin their AI journey. She noted that many providers are unsure where to start with AI adoption, but waiting is not an option. By experimenting with existing tools, cleaning up data, and testing small internal projects, MSPs can build the foundation for AI-driven efficiency. Robinson emphasized that the most successful use cases to date have come from operations—not flashy product launches. By automating back-office tasks, MSPs can reclaim hours of productivity, uncover hidden revenue opportunities, and prepare their organizations for larger AI-driven transformation. “Be customer zero,” she advised, urging MSPs to apply AI internally before bringing solutions to clients. She also highlighted Anunta's unique approach to digital employee experience. Their service-as-a-software platform uses AI agents to simulate a war room, pulling in data from network, infrastructure, and desktop tools to resolve issues in real time—often before end users even notice a problem. This “zero-incident framework” lowers ticket volumes and reduces operational costs for both MSPs and their customers. “AI isn't just a toolset—it's a mindset,” Robinson said. “It's about reframing growth, not by adding headcount, but by leveraging technology to deliver more with less.” Learn more at anuntatech.com.

In this fiery and insightful episode of Get a Grip on Lighting, hosts Michael and Greg dive deep into the DLC's 501 (c) 3 charitable activities like product labelling in the lighting industry.  Pulling no punches as they challenge the status quo. Here's what you'll get: Lighting Industry Real TalkMichael and Greg dissect the influence of the DesignLights Consortium (DLC) and how its evolving standards are reshaping—some say disrupting—the lighting landscape. From rebate gatekeeping to the unintended consequences of product labelling outcomes, they call out the system with passion and precision. Global Power ShiftIs America losing its grip on lighting tech? Our hosts argue that DLC policies have inadvertently handed the reins to Chinese manufacturers, raising serious questions about strategic independence and technological sovereignty. Back to BasicsForget chasing rebates—Michael champions a return to practical lighting solutions that serve real needs other than free money from electrical utility ratepayers.  Smarter choices, and fixtures people can actually maintain. Unfiltered Opinions & Sharp InsightsFrom lumens per watt fatigue to the absurdity of shrinking fixtures for Chinese container optimization, this episode is filled with bold takes and industry wisdom.

Membership | Donations | Spotify | YouTube | Apple PodcastsThis week's guest is my friend Evan Miyazono, CEO and Director of Atlas Computing — a tech non-profit committed not to the false god of perfect alignment but to plausible strategy of provable safety. Focusing on community building, cybersecurity, and biosecurity, Evan and his colleagues are working to advance a new AI architecture that constrains and formally specifies AI outputs, with reviewable intermediary results, collaborating across sectors to promote this radically different and more empirical approach to applied machine intelligence.After completing his PhD in Applied Physics at Caltech, Evan led research at Protocol Labs, creating their research grants program, and led the special projects team that created Hypercerts, Funding the Commons, gov4git, and key parts of Discourse Graphs and the initial Open Agency Architecture proposal.In our conversation we talk about a wide swath of topics including regulatory scaling problems, specifying formal organizational charters, the spectre of opacity, and the quantification of trust — all, in some sense, interdisciplinary matters of “game design” in our entanglement with magical technologies and fundamental uncertainty.If you enjoy this conversation, join the Wisdom x Technology Discord server and consider becoming a member for access to our study groups, community calls, and complete archives.

Game designers Forrest Imel and Gavin Valentine define games as having meaningful decisions, uncertain outcomes, and measurable feedback. If any one of these breaks, the game breaks. And we can think about tech ethics through this lens as well. Much of tech discourse is about how one or more of these dimensions has broken the “game” of life on Earth — the removal of meaningful decisions, the mathematical guarantee of self-termination through unsustainable practices, and/or the decoupling of feedback loops.AI alignment approaches tend to converge on restoring meaningful decisions by getting rid of uncertainty, but it's a lost cause. It's futile to encode our values into systems we can't understand. To the extent that machines think, they think very differently than we do, and characteristically “interpret” our requests in ways that reveal the assumptions we are used to making based on shared context and understanding with other people.We may not know how a black box AI model arrives at its outputs, but we can evaluate those outputs…and we can segment processes like this so that there are more points at which to review them. One of this show's major premises is that the design and use of AI systems is something like spellcraft — a domain where precision matters because the smallest deviation from a precise encoding of intent can backfire.Magic isn't science in as much as we can say that for spellcraft, mechanistic understanding is, frankly, beside the point. Whatever you may think of it, spellcraft evolved as a practical approach for operating in a mysterious cosmos. Westernized Modernity dismisses magic because Enlightenment era thinking is predicated on the knowability of nature and the conceit that everything can and will eventually bend to principled, rigorous investigation. But this confused accounting just reshuffled its uneradicable remainder of fundamental uncertainty back into a stubbornly persistent Real that continues to exist in excess of language, mathematics, and mechanistic frameworks. Economies, AI, and living systems guarantee uncertain outcomes — and in accepting this, we have to re-engage with magic in the form of our machines. The more alike they become, the more our mystery and open-ended co-improvisation loom back over any goals of final knowledge and control.In a 2016 essay, Danny Hillis called this The Age of Entanglement. It is a time that calls for an evolutionary approach to technology. Tinkering and re-evaluating, we find ourselves one turn up the helix in which quantitative precision helps us reckon with the new built wilderness of technology. When we cannot fully explain the inner workings of large language models, we have to step back and ask:What are our values, and how do we translate them into measurable outputs?How can we break down the wicked problem of AI controllability into chunks on which it's possible to operate?How can adaptive oversight and steering fit with existing governance processes?In other words, how can we properly task the humanities with helping us identify “meaningful decisions” and the sciences with providing “measurable feedback.” Giving science the job of solving uncertainty or defining our values ensures we'll get as close as we can to certitude about outcomes we definitely don't want. But if we think like game designers, then interdisciplinary collaboration can help us safely handle the immense power we've created and keep the game going. This is a public episode.

In this episode of the Antler Up Podcast, I sit down with Tom Fleisher (@PhillyBurbsBowHunter) to talk about the challenges and rewards of suburban hunting in Pennsylvania. Tom shares how his early hunting experiences shaped his passion for the sport and how Pennsylvania's 5C area offers unique opportunities for deer hunters. We dive into the importance of strategic planning, patience, and responsible deer management in urban and suburban settings, where shot placement and ethical hunting are critical. Tom also highlights the value of building relationships with property owners, navigating new state game lands, and fostering a sense of community through his Philly Burbs Bow Hunters page. Beyond hunting strategy, we discuss the role of technology—like cell cameras, which can be both an asset and a distraction—along with how harsh winters impact deer movement. Tom also shares insights on hunting gear, from the benefits of heavy arrows for better penetration to the importance of constant tinkering for improved performance. If you're interested in suburban hunting, refining your setup, or just looking to hear great hunting stories, this episode is packed with valuable insights!
