Well, the history of software development shows that everything is changing and don't lasts forever. Golden age of SaaSes now is going to fade (at least for current version and for some time, maybe a decade). Today junior developers can create a fully working SaaS with dozens of features without even knowing how it works. And they would spend a few weeks or evenings to develop it. We are about to see a flood of services and it will make all the business model obsolete. This is what is happening now at Github. You can see a lot of excellent projects which were written by AI, and no one wants to contribute to these projects, because they can do the same project on themselves

Just because they can write it - which is doubtful - doesn’t mean any company of note is going to trust software written by a random junior developer with any of their proprietary information.

Creating software has always been easier for SaaS type software than understanding the business and sales.

Thank you. There's a lot of insights y'all are honing. Appreciate that.

Do you think small businesses, e.g. the bodega on the corner, the local barber or nail shop have those concerns?
