The enterprise AI land grab is accelerating fast. Anthropic and OpenAI are both announcing new ventures aimed squarely at business customers, while SAP dropped one billion dollars to acquire German AI startup Prior Labs.

It's a rare and candid look at just how fragile those early billion-dollar handshakes actually were.
