Your question is Address Executive Self-Hosting TCO. Take a moment with it on the right.
Talk me through your thinking if you like. When you're confident, submit your answer and I'll grade it like a real screen (7/10 or better passes).
A C-level executive insists on self-hosting a frontier model locally for data privacy reasons. How do you address their concerns while discussing total cost of ownership?
Treat this as a client-facing strategy discussion. Explain how you would uncover the executive’s privacy requirements, compare self-hosting with an Anthropic cloud deployment, and make a recommendation without dismissing the stated concern. Cover direct costs, operational complexity, security controls, performance, scalability, and organizational capability.
