My thesis is that in software you don't want aggregators. They provide the promise of vendor neutrality, but it comes at the expense of increased supply chain compromise risk, small print technically legal data exfiltration.

Even in the happy case where nothing bad happens, you get a badly integrated product, because you integrate not against the actual vendor, but against a abstraction layer that commoditizes the actual product, effectively forcing you to either use the least common denominator of features, or circumventing the actual aggregation model itself with some kind of 'vendor_specific_parameters' parameter in the aggregator API.

My thesis is drop the vendor neutrality, and build your integration with the vendor directly.

The regulated-enterprise angle is the interesting part. Bedrock's whole pitch to those customers was "your data never leaves your AWS boundary" — that's the line that gets it through procurement and compliance reviews. A 30-day retention requirement where traffic crosses into the vendor's boundary quietly invalidates that, and for healthcare/finance/gov it's not a knob they can flip no matter how good the model is. This is exactly why we keep our LLM layer provider-agnostic with a self-hosted fallback (Ollama-class models) for data-sensitive paths — you eat a capability hit, but you keep the option of not sending regulated data anywhere. The risk TZubiri names is real: the moment you're reaching for "vendor_specific_parameters," the neutrality you bought the aggregator for is already gone.

Same as for GitHub Copilot?

"For more on how Anthropic handles this data, see Anthropic’s commercial terms and data retention policy. Enabling the Claude Fable 5 policy constitutes acknowledgement of this requirement. Leaving it off keeps Claude Fable 5 unavailable to your organization."

They want your data. > After 30 days, the data is deleted automatically Do we believe that? > or we're legally required to keep it. Aha - so, data is forever.

> Do we believe that?

If you don't believe them now why would you have believed them earlier when they said "no data is retained" ?

Pretty sure this doesn't work for any regulated enterprise or government client. But AWS knows this, so I am curious why they'd agree to it.

> why they'd agree to it

that's obvious, but perhaps worth stating: it's worth it, demand for the model is unprecedented and the only downside for Anthropic if AWS rejected would be some revenue pushed a quarter away as they get Fable ready on their recently acquired compute from xAI and Google.
