There's an old saying that “software is eating the world,” but these days, it feels more like artificial intelligence is eating software. AI is definitely having a moment, and I'm not talking about generating images, writing emails, or building your website. Just last week, I wrote about how AI and the small team behind ArtCraft were building free, open-source alternatives to expensive software, including Adobe Creative Cloud and Microsoft Office. That's giving the traditional software-as-a-service business model a lot to think about. What’s interesting to me is how quickly AI is helping these small teams and individual developers accomplish things that in the past would have required a lot more time, expertise, and resources.
