Omoh! That Jarvis viral AI video we just watched for a minute actually took a long process to create oo! The work rate these guys put in no be small. Incredible! 👏👏
With Cursor/Lovable/Claude Code, the cost of software creation is approaching zero. I think this will fundamentally change software business models over the next decade.
Software itself will be less differentiated, meaning differentiation will have to come elsewhere; in many cases, the software itself will be "free" in order to charge for another offering.
As I see it, there are seven business models that benefit from this:
1. Hardware: Use software to sell hardware (or vice versa)
2. Vertical Integration: Offer vertically integrated hardware and software
3. Services: Charge for the work itself (accounting, legal) or offer services to integrate software into complex, custom deployments
4. Payments: Give away software, charge for interchange fees
5. Platforms: Customers will pay for the convenience of platforms, not the functionality of point solutions
6. Advertising: Software essentially becomes “interactive content.” Infinity bonus points if network effects are involved
7. Infrastructure / Compute: The platforms that enable software creation will collect their tax on each piece of it
So I’m writing a several-part series laying out a framework for business models in the age of “free software"
Mastering the concepts of your current language is what really matters! 💡 It makes switching to any language in the future way easier. 🚀
Y’all agree? 👀
This statement reveals that sometimes it's the mentality of some folks that causes stagnation and underdevelopment.
Imagine someone like this being in a position to lead development.
What was the need for this? I understand it was mainly an Unreal Engine showcase but this will definitely bring up unnecessary criticism for this game if it doesn't look as good as the Tech demo.
The Witcher 4 dev says Tech Demo doesn’t represent the actual game
but will end up looking similar to the tech demo in one core way the "art style and the visual direction" CDPR wants to be extremely transparent
