Transcript

So I think one misconceptions that we'll look back on in the era of AI is actually the death of SaaS. Because I see this take on Twitter all the time. People are like, why would anyone buy software when we have such good AI and AI tooling where we can just build any custom software that we want. And as someone who's been building stuff literally my entire career, I was an engineer at Twitch. And before that, I was a PM. Like, I totally understand wanting to build something before having to buy it. But this is the catch. Ultimately, as a user, I want the product that's going to solve my problem, and the best product will win. If you're not fully focused on making this custom software perfectly work for you, you're just gonna churn from your own product. At the end of the day, software is about solving problems, and that is something that I think we are willing to pay for. But let me know what you think in the comments.
