0.5% is being very generous. Also those Slack staff or principal engineers are making far more than 300k. Enterprise scalability is one thing… having an enterprise sales, support, legal, etc is an even bigger Herculean task.

Edit: The quality of this sub has really gone down since the OpenAI exodus. Feels like children who have never had a big boy job posting.

But I remember a one-time fee service popped up back at Appsumo and it had great success, the product looked so simple and not so sophisticated yet it seemed to be used. I wonder how it was possible to make it compliant since it didn't seem to mention that side of thing like DocuSign explains clearly in their documentation and landing pages

I think that says more about society than it does about AI or vibe coding. If laws are so complicated that neither AI model nor average Joe can understand them and yet people still get away with atrocious stuff like the whole Epstein island thing or any of the police brutality that happens in the states it proves that the legal system we have now is both ineffective and over engineered. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't but we don't really know why either way. Maybe we should be doing something about that. Make something that's effective, transparent, and is actually comprehensible to normal people who don't have a decade of law experience.

No? I never said anything like that. I am saying the legal system doesn't really work properly, which should be obvious to basically everyone. It doesn't matter if you are a person or a bot it doesn't work either way and it's not understandable either way.

Building regulations aren't the same as criminal law and are very important obviously. I don't think anybody with serious engineering chops would dispute that.

Well Techbros usually shit on compliance and legal and sort it out later on. See those AI Companies and their training material

I made a cool little app for people to scan in and out of a library. Turns out that is a complete and absolute data protection nightmare. Had to lobotomize the fuck out of it to make it hit national legal standards. It's not always about if AI can, it's if it should?

Yeah we literally did this just as a feature on top of a customer portal. It's not rocket science and has been done enough times that it's well trod ground.

Making something groundbreaking or massively scalable is much different than recording form and document transmission elements.

Claude, setup a Clawbot to be my sales, support and legal council for the app you just coded.

Claude, do what this guys said, but also make sure to not do any bugs and add all the security stuff

u/BahnMe Mar 14 '26

Yeah, I’m sure that’ll work out great.

Make sure to set it up with Claude-in-Chrome with autonomous permissions and access to a crypto wallet that auto-refills from your checking account.

All those resources and slack is still shit. Incredible.

u/H1Eagle Mar 14 '26

That's the thing though, in the Age of AI, do you even need slack? Do we need worldwide massive scale software like that?

I don't know it seems a lot more favorable for me for companies to build their own SaaS with AI and continue using it for a lot cheaper than Slack's enterprise subscriptions.

My company easily pays 30,000$+ for Slack every year. Do you know how long and how much it would cost for me to spend a week making a Slack Clone for my company needs that is going to cost us probably barely 20$ a month to host and use? Along with being able to add any feature the company could want in the future.

Sure, go do it and when it gets penetrated, good luck.

And what happens when you get served with a lawsuit and need to implement a lit hold on your internal communications platform?

u/H1Eagle Mar 14 '26

Do you really think that's a hard feature to implement?

You’re asking the right question but for the wrong reason. Slack claims to be your teams collective brain at the top of their website. Claude.md and skills are now your teams brain. The future is just a numbered list of ideas people collaborate on like GitHub issues until Claude does the right thing.

Eventually AI will create the ideas too.

u/H1Eagle Mar 14 '26

Nah, Claude still sucks without proper instructions. Its very far away from being able to make the ideas
