Independent corroboration missing: AI vendors control narratives on real-world adoption and impact

Anthropic, OpenAI, and other AI labs publish proprietary usage reports, but researchers note there is no independent third-party verification of these claims. Banks and enterprises relying on vendor metrics to justify AI spend lack objective truth on what users actually do with these tools.

WHY IT MATTERS

Risk officers and CROs cannot independently validate ROI claims vendors make about LLM deployments. This creates audit blind spots and inflates internal AI business cases, leading to capital misallocation.
