And what that does is it floods the market with

PRs or images or writing that's kind of good but not quite right for the situation.

And what you need are human experts to come in and take the cheap competence that AI enables anyone to have and turn it into actual really, really good, valuable, differentiated work because otherwise it's...

TBPN
Starship Launch, World's Fair Retrospective, Sacks Spikes AI EO | Dan Shipper, James Rogers

it's just the same thing as everybody else is doing and it's not valuable.

TBPN

And I think that's a dynamic inside of how the models work and how they function in the economy that is kind of lost when people are worried about, oh yeah, it can do all this great stuff.

TBPN

And in order for that great stuff to be valuable, it needs to be done by a human.

I think that I'm very bullish on...

people like a person or a small group of people making software for a niche.

TBPN
Starship Launch, World's Fair Retrospective, Sacks Spikes AI EO | Dan Shipper, James Rogers

I think that's totally happening, but I'm very, I think the, the, the SaaS apocalypse is like totally overblown.

99% of people are not going to be vibe coding their own apps.

They might do it once, but actually maintaining software is really, really hard.

And it's a particular skillset that most people don't want to have.

TBPN

Um, and I would be buying SaaS stocks cause I, I actually, you know, if you look at every week,

We can VibeCo whatever we want.

TBPN

Narrative violation.
