We, the Capstone IT Team, wish you all a safe, healthy and joyful holiday season!!

What a great honor to be asked to be a judge at the Hobe Sound Christmas Parade! With our office in Palm Beach Gardens and home in Martin County, we have been able to connect with the most generous, extraordinary, business rock stars from Fort Pierce to Boca.  We love doing business with all of you and also celebrating the holidays together too!

You’ve probably noticed the little elf helping you around retail stores this year. No, it’s not the teenager at the mall in red-and-white stockings with a felted green hat. It’s AI.

Log in to Amazon, and you’ll see suggested products like winter decorations, novels or toy recommendations for kids. Add that remote-controlled car into your cart for your nephew, and you’ll get recommendations for batteries and gift wrapping too. This is no accident – generative AI uses your past purchases and recent searches to curate this personalized display. At the end of your shopping affair, you can share your experience, which will be data fodder for AI to learn and improve your next shopping venture.

One in six shoppers uses generative AI to inspire shopping decisions, according to a 2023 Salesforce survey. However, data by SAP Emarsys reports that barely more than half of consumers feel it positively impacts their online shopping experience. What is generative AI, and what does it mean for our holiday shopping – and our privacy?

During the holiday season, it’s easy to lose focus on work-related responsibilities. Hackers may actively exploit the distractions that accompany this joyous time. While you’re busy with holiday preparations, they’re on the lookout for vulnerabilities in your systems. Protect yourself from becoming a target by following these tips.
