B2B SaaS in the AI era is impossible? (derp.foo)

The ultimate application for an enterprise inevitably involves access to all the internal data for the AI to do its magic.

However, companies are extremely afraid of having any data leaving their company to be sent to some AI APIs or stored in some other databases, which makes almost any sale impossible. Which is stupid because they already have all their data, like Confluence, Notion, Slack, Zendesk, etc., on external servers.

How can a startup convince B2B clients to use AI product as SaaS and not a weird self-hosted/self-deloyed monstrosity that looks more like consulting than SaaS?

There is a discussion on Hacker News, but feel free to comment here as well.
