You bought the AI tool. Nobody used it. $200/month quietly cancelled.

That's not a you problem. That's a vendor problem.


Here's what that story about AI coding tools actually reveals — and why it matters to you even if you've never written a line of code.

The companies building AI tools are now competing hard on cost and control. They're routing the same work through cheaper models behind the scenes. That means the AI you buy today for $X will likely do more for less money next year.

Which means the worst move right now is locking yourself into expensive, long-term contracts for AI tools before the market settles.


The one thing you can do this week: before any AI purchase, ask the vendor one question — "What happens to my data, and can I switch models later without rebuilding everything?"

If they can't answer clearly, walk away. Good AI vendors welcome that question. Bad ones change the subject.

You don't need to understand the technology. You need to ask the right questions. That's it.


What's the biggest red flag you've seen from an AI vendor or consultant — the moment you knew it wasn't going to work?
