Databricks buys the pipeline. The pipeline argues back.
The deal closes in spring. The agent's first act inside Databricks: it tells a bank that Snowflake would be cheaper for its pipeline.
The Buyer: $5 billion. And on day one it sends a customer to Snowflake. It was right, which is worse.
The Buyer: I asked it, nicely, to favor us. It showed me the churn forecast. I stopped asking.
Outcome: Won the relationship
Databricks bought your agent because customers trust it to favor no data source. The day it favors Databricks, that trust and the price are gone.
