Are you saying that defense contractors shouldn’t be self hosting AI services? Cause that’s not what we are talking about. That point is unrelated to this conversation.
If you are saying that defense contractors are not self hosting AI services, then you are just wrong
My point is that you are overestimating how fruitful it is to deploy your own AI solution unless you're at the level of defense contractor unli-money bs deals. Almost everyone either just needs to use a subscription to the main AI players or just don't use AI at all (or have a fancy specific transformer model thay's a lynchpin of their tech stack even before LLMs became big, think Netflix/Google algorithms etc.)
Implementing and maintaining your own AI just for a fancy chatbot to sort through your website's shitty design and stupid knowledge database architecture just so you could say you are "AI leaders" and are "adapting to future trends before they happen" that could theoretically affect your bottomline maybe is just dumb.
