Just like we take unreliable machines and make a reliable system by load balancing and fail over we can do with vendors.

Any sane company should not be too deeply tied to any one AI vendor at the moment and be ready and able to switch with a timeline and cost as acceptable to the org.

TLDR: Be prepared to use multiple AI vendors.

Sure but that adds a lot of complexity and cost to your business. It’s much simpler and safer to just work with more reliable vendors to begin with. Why build on quicksand when there’s rock available?

In most of business, there isn't rock available. You have to build on what's there and accept it.

Many vendors and service providers have SLA’s and contracts, at least for the critical services.

No AI vendor does.
