I'm not defending AI, but I can come up with >10 products that would absolutely cripple the company I work at if the provider suddenly says "Soz, terms of service violation".
Vendor reliance is dangerous. That doesn't just apply to AI. If the company in OP's message had both Claude and Gemini they'd been okay, so the problem isn't with AI explicitly - the problem is with reliance on services that are critical for workflows, and providers being able to change their mind at a moment's notice.
In any case, leaving aside where the problem is, the idea that 60 employees can't use Natural Intelligence to do their jobs means there's something really wrong with that company...
kind of a difference between infrastructure for daily operations and AI though? well, there should be....
