AI has killed software switching costs

  • (OP here) Bit of a controversial take I wrote about. Most people think that AI benefits incumbents and LLMs deepen software moats.

    But for the first time, we have an intelligent, format-agnostic file converter. Give ChatGPT an export file from one app, and seconds later you get an import file ready for another tool.

    We've seen the benefit first-hand at our startup with our "AI Form Importer". It's now easier than ever to demo and migrate to new software solutions.

    I think this is largely a good thing for the ecosystem.
