Eric and Neil break down how AI is changing software and what founders need to understand as user behavior, distribution, and product expectations keep shifting. They unpack why building around websites, dashboards, and traditional UI patterns may matter less going forward, and what happens when people increasingly want outcomes instead of more clicks.
They also get into what this means for marketers, agencies, and SaaS companies, why old funnels may become less effective, and where founders should focus if they want to stay relevant as AI changes how people discover, use, and buy software.
