Forrester's TalosCon analysis warns that enterprises risk repeating consolidation mistakes from the cloud era by betting too heavily on single AI platforms—OpenAI, Anthropic, or internal models—while the technology landscape remains unsettled. The winning strategy mirrors successful multicloud approaches: preserve optionality across model providers, deployment methods, and inference engines rather than optimize for short-term cost or performance gains that lock companies into a vendor's roadmap. Competitive advantage shifts from selecting the best AI to building internal capabilities for swapping models and managing heterogeneous stacks.
