LangChain argues companies will rent models but own workflows, evals and memory

A quoted article argues that companies will increasingly rent the model but own the layer around it: the workflows, evaluations, and memory that turn generic AI into something business-specific.
The framing compares AI to logistics: a retailer does not manufacture trucks, but it does own the system that decides what gets sourced and how inventory moves. The post says that as adoption grows, the bigger market may be the tooling that makes models reliable inside real companies, not the models themselves.
