100 sats \ 5 replies \ @kepford 2 Sep \ parent \ on: AI Agents Are Predicted to Increase the Software Market and Outstrip SaaS AI
But AI agents sounds a lot more sexy.
For decades we devs have been piping data all over the place. On our operating systems, commandlines, and across the Internet. The pattern I see repeat over and over again is making things easier and more approachable. We've seen it in the world of running servers for decades. We have seen in the mobile phone market. Now we are seeing it with APIs. Its all APIs. AI can't do these things without APIs. But APIs are not sexy anymore so the marketing is all about AI. AI is important but its not the only factor.
If you zoom out you can see the patterns.

So we get to burn ridiculous amounts of electricity because companies won't release a public API endpoint? 😆

It's better. You get to pay Zuck so disgustingly much money for that, that Zuck will build a Manhattan-sized datacenter so you can let your cognitive decline go all the way to zero and never think again!

100% plenty of AI stuff is just the old stuff, that works well, with a thin layer of AI thrown in for marketing purposes!

Well, AI is more than hype. Its just not all of the hype and we will see how sustainable it is. I suspect it will be eventually. Agents are basically glue between systems. And they are responsive and flexible. One way to think about it is as a UI. The chatbot interface.
