Marketing is irrelevant.

Companies will keep using Google/Microsoft/Amazon cloud offerings due to the ease of extending existing contracts and procurements.

Virtually all my clients use Bedrock or Azure with zero data retention. Not one would use openai/anthropic or chinese cloud offerings.

Only devs do so.

Could you not argue that local hosting of open-weight model with ZDR, and possibly even fine-tuned on your company's proprietary data is even more secure, compliant, and cheap than just letting OpenAI/Anthropic train their models on your responses? Obviously C-Suite often never sees this far into the future, but I'd argue that there's virtually zero downside to this approach.

The hardware prices to support this proposal would make by Business Head's eyes pop haha
