> What happens when there’s software you think should exist, and you no longer need to hire a bunch of people at $150k-$250k per year to build it?
What happens when 200 out-of-work former software engineers take a look at your software and use LLMs to quickly build their own version each undercutting everyone else's prices in a race to the bottom?
I think what I’m saying is that there’s a lot of software that doesn’t get built at all because the cost of serving a particular niche market is still too high, and that AI may put some of those markets within reach.
So, those software engineers may be able to move sideways instead of competing to build the same software.
