Most companies have not yet been using AI efficiently, and often do so simply out of FOMO. What’s more, the fact that open-weight models have caught up with or even overtaken closed AIs is a recent development over the last six months.

From my personal experience, most companies don't look at the benchmarks and simply buy "AI" from a company based on their perception of that company.

All the Chinese models are scary and "dangerous", Grok too (but for slightly more legitimate reasons), Meta that's Facebook and everyone knows they're bad at privacy (even your boss), so they end up choosing Microsoft's AI, OpenAI, or Anthropic.
