Agentic AI is reshaping the classic buy or build decision. Not by replacing SaaS across the board, but by shifting the economics and governance of building software. The real change is hybrid: owning code while depending on external AI infrastructure. Make becomes viable for commodity tools and differentiating layers, while regulated core systems remain in the buy domain.

OpenAI raises $122B at $852B valuation in largest private round ever, with individual investors accessing shares through ARK ETFs for the first time. Amazon's $35B stake hinges on IPO conditions.

Anthropic began throttling Claude subscribers during peak hours without notice, despite knowing the economics don't work. A $20/month user generates ~$58 in inference costs, with power users burning far more. The company acknowledged some subscribers consume "tens of thousands of dollars" against flat-rate plans. Echoes AOL's 1996 unlimited access crisis that ended in regulatory settlement.
