> Note that this is often not the same as "#9 - Do you use the best tools money can buy?" as blocking AI tools is about data security, not money.

I do think AI fits #9. The fact that current AI tools are not meeting data security requirements are due to the market demands and maturity:

- price needs to be low to attract adopters.

- low price? These service providers will hoard data

- data needs to be collected for training

So i think long term, there will be more premium AI tools that “promise” to not collect your data. Perhaps self-hosted? Self hosting with AI is not attractive, at least not for consumers or small businesses.
