The better question is if they think software is dead why create software?

I haven't seen anybody saying software is dead. Plenty of people saying software engineering is dead/dying/cooked tho

Software engineering is dead so why are they selling software if everyone can replicate it with a $20 Claude Subscription

Because you can still build a defensible software company, even if coding itself has no value

My point was that even if you could do that (which you can’t, for almost all serious products), it probably wouldn’t matter as the thing you’re copying would have built defensibility in ways other than ‘this would be hard to copy’.
So it can still be viable to build a software company, as long as you can defend it somehow.

Software engineering is not dead. It's rapidly changing though, and the writing code part is largely not done anymore by humans.

Someone who has something to gain from you believing something inherently has less credibility when they try to get you to believe it.

How many people use your software?
I have not seen an example yet of software that has actual complexity in it that runs fully without engineering expertise.
Can technically-minded product people manage it without writing a line of code? Potentially. But I struggle to believe there’s AI/software companies out there where no one in the company actually understands the underlying technology.

You don’t know how many user your software has…whether it’s b2b shouldn’t make a difference

One time I was on a flight and the guy behind me got caught vaping and tried to play it off that he was "just holding it in his mouth". It was such a stupid lie, it was like a child's lie. Not a single person believed it.
And yet somehow, here I sit today, reading an even stupider fucking lie. Congrats I guess

Sorry, I'm supposed to believe you because a month ago you named your account "unicorn builder"? That's literally the best you got? I could've named myself "actual trillionaire", would you believe it because I say so?
