The Fable 5 disruption is the case study. When a single vendor decision can collapse a company's AI capability overnight, that company never had a strategy, it had a dependency. This episode makes the argument that enterprise AI built on vendor relationships is structurally fragile, and the organizations that survive model transitions will be the ones that built something vendors cannot take away.

The actual asset is not the model. It is the institutional judgment encoded in workflow traces, private evaluation sets, and model-portable IP. These are the things that transfer when you switch from GPT-4 to Claude to whatever ships next quarter. The episode breaks down what a learning system looks like in practice, and the specifics of how companies can start capturing that layer now, not after the next disruption.
