Okay, the TLDR is SAS.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

So there's a few layers.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

There's the building of software or parts to software.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

There's the building of software and then there's the operating of software to get something wrong.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

And I think most developers are very familiar with the building of software is changing now.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

But the operating software, the operating of work, the doing of work in all industries and all knowledge work,

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

can change like we've changed software.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

And SAS is made for humans, slow humans to use.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

The SAS UI is made for a puny human to go in, work out this complex thing, and it has to be in a nice UI.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

If it's not a human actually doing the work that they do in the SAS, if it's an AI doing that work, why is there a SAS tool?

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

The AI doesn't need a SAS tool to get the work done.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

It might need a little UI for you to tell you what it's done, but the whole idea of humans using software, I think, is going to change.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

Yeah, I guess we should probably kind of tease apart SaaS the business and SaaS the software.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

Because, yeah, I agree.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

The interface is changing.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

The interface that we use, whether it's visually a CLI or a chat conversation or something, but the way we communicate with the software is changing, right?

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

It's a much more natural language thing.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

We don't have to dig in the UI to find the thing to click.
