The big money just got bigger in AI consulting. And that should tell you something important — but probably not what they want you to think.
When Blackstone and Anthropic back a firm that immediately acquires another AI services company, it means enterprise AI implementation is still hard enough that even well-funded giants need to buy expertise fast. This isn't a solved problem. Not for them. Not for anyone.
So if you bought an AI tool that's collecting digital dust, you're not behind. You just skipped a step the billion-dollar firms are still figuring out — matching the right problem to the right solution before spending a dime.
Here's what the money is actually chasing: implementation. Not the software. Not the demo. The boring, unglamorous work of making AI fit how your team already operates. That's where value lives.
The one thing you can do this week: write down the single most repetitive task your team complains about. One task. That's your starting point for an AI conversation — not a product purchase, just a conversation.
The tool follows the problem. Never the other way around.
What's the AI tool you bought that nobody actually uses?
