With the vast proliferation of AI technology in the channel and industrywide, expect to see the role of chief AI officer to become more common.

Pax8 has appointed one of its senior vice presidents to take over as the company's chief AI officer, a position that will hold additional weight as MSPs and vendors continue their expansion into AI products.

Pax8's Eric Stevens

Eric Stevens takes on his new role on Monday. He will report directly to Pax8 CEO Scott Chasin.

"AI is about to completely revolutionize the world, and the vision for an AI-empowered marketplace cannot be underestimated," said Stevens. "Undertaking the role of chief AI officer of Pax8 is an incredible opportunity and exciting challenge that I'm eager to embark on."  

Stevens previously served as SVP of engineering at Pax8, and has a history working at companies such as Verizon, ProtectWise and Sanofi Pasteur.

Channel Futures sat down with Stevens during Pax8 Beyond last week to talk about his plans as chief AI officer and how Pax8 will approach the technology.
