Closed AI Models: The New Strategic Pivot to Enterprise Markets (eco.sapo.pt)

• Transition from public access to closed enterprise systems
• Focus on high-margin corporate software integration
• Intellectual property control as a primary growth driver

This pivot marks a decline in open-access AI, favoring proprietary ecosystems designed to address corporate-specific security and efficiency needs while maintaining strict control over core model infrastructure."
