What your AI provider doesn’t mention.
- Data leakage
Every interaction transmits prompt content to the provider, where it may be logged, retained, evaluated, or used for training.
- Outsourced capability
When your system depends on someone else’s engine, so does your advantage. The provider controls the terms and where value accumulates.
- Jurisdiction and regulation
Externally hosted AI expands the compliance surface. CLOUD Act, GDPR, the EU AI Act, and DORA all become harder to evidence when the model sits outside the firm.
to Ownership
Why the next phase of enterprise AI belongs to the firms that own their data and capabilities.
