Applied AIThe ugly economics of consumer AI
Consumer assistants are turning into loss leaders for data, distribution, and downstream enterprise upsell — not standalone profit centers. If you’re building on top of frontier APIs, assume pricing and access volatility as labs chase sustainable unit economics.
Applied AIOpenAI Blames Moonshot for Mass Data Extraction on Its AI Models
Model exfiltration at this scale turns frontier systems into IP and security assets that need nation-state-grade protection — not just rate limits. If you expose high-value model behavior via APIs, treat scraping and behavioral cloning as core threat models and budget for active defense.
