I would second this with some anecdata...

I have worked for one of these companies that produces fancy AI based hardware.

Turns out the hardware is made in China and the AI is handled by third parties (amazon, etc.)

Does that mean putting it all together is trivial? Of course not. But it's not as difficult as it might seem from the outside.

being the middle man is fun tho. other people do the hard stuff and then you get to combine it into something actually useful!

Absolutely. And, a ton of valuable tools can be made. Make no mistake about it!
