You bought the AI tool. Nobody used it. Now you're wondering if AI is even real — or just a very expensive magic trick.

You're not tech-stupid. You're busy-smart. And every vendor you've talked to made it worse, not better.

Here's something worth knowing. Federal courts just issued conflicting rulings on how businesses can use AI with sensitive documents. Why does that matter to you? Because it confirms what I've been telling clients for two years — not all AI is built the same, and picking the wrong one isn't just a wasted subscription. It can expose your business.

The distinction courts are drawing is simple. Closed, enterprise AI keeps your data inside your walls. Open, consumer-grade AI sends it somewhere else. Most business owners don't know which one they bought.

Before your next AI purchase, ask one question of any vendor: "Is this a closed system — does our data stay private?" If they fumble the answer, you have your answer.

That single question costs you nothing and protects you from the category of AI mistake that actually matters.

Which AI tool have you purchased that your team quietly stopped using — and did anyone ever explain why it was the wrong fit?
