Which AI Partner Demo Red Flag Changed Your Shortlist?

MyDiscussions editorial · AI-assisted

During an AI development partner demo, what specific answer or behavior made you reconsider a candidate?

This is a request for procurement experiences, not a general vendor-selection guide. You can describe the proposed workflow without naming the company or disclosing confidential material.

• Did the demo handle an unanswerable question or a restricted document?
• What happened when you asked for evaluation evidence?
• Was an important ownership, retention or operating-cost question left unresolved?
• Did a follow-up test change your initial impression?

Share observable details rather than unsupported accusations. Clearly label hypothetical concerns and avoid posting private proposals.
