Building on AI: How Much Risk Can You Handle?

In this brief on-the-go episode, Tom discusses the risks of building businesses on centralized AI infrastructure. Sparked by Cloudflare's recent major outage, he explores what happens when AI vendors go down and how companies should think about their risk appetite when depending on services like OpenAI, Anthropic, or other AI providers. From wrapping entire business strategies around AI APIs to considering self-hosted alternatives, Tom breaks down the strategic considerations for both startups and established businesses looking to integrate AI into their core operations.


Key Topics

  • The Cloudflare outage and its implications for internet infrastructure
  • Risk management when building on third-party AI vendors
  • Different deployment options: OpenAI direct, Azure AI playground, or self-hosted models
  • How risk appetite should differ between startups and established businesses
  • Strategic considerations for making AI a core part of your business
  • The AI bubble discussion and vendor dependency concerns
