Position: Avoid Overstretching LLMs for every Enterprise Task
📰 ArXiv cs.AI
Don't overuse LLMs for every enterprise task, as they can be inefficient and unreliable - use them as interfaces instead
Action Steps
- Evaluate your enterprise tasks to identify deterministic, structured, and knowledge-dependent workloads
- Assess the cost, latency, and reliability constraints of each task
- Consider using LLMs as interfaces rather than monolithic solutions
- Design AI systems that integrate LLMs with other components to address specific task requirements
- Test and validate the performance of your AI system under various constraints
Who Needs to Know This
AI engineers and enterprise architects can benefit from this insight to design more efficient and reliable AI systems
Key Insight
💡 LLMs are not a one-size-fits-all solution for enterprise tasks - use them judiciously as part of a larger AI system

Title: Position: Avoid Overstretching LLMs for every Enterprise Task
Abstract:
arXiv:2605.09365v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Enterprise workloads are dominated by deterministic, structured, and knowledge-dependent tasks operating under strict cost, latency, and reliability constraints. While these are often addressed through large language model (LLM) deployment or distillation into smaller models, we argue this is inefficient, unreliable, and misaligned with enterprise task structures. Instead, AI systems should treat language models as interfaces rather than monolithic
