We’ve been reading almost every day that tech jobs, but also mkt, sales, etc. are over. SaaS, CRMs and big tech players like Salesforce, Jira, and so on..
Is that really true? Are we gonna be replaced by 1-5 big companies owning the best models? I’m not so sure.
The passion of many engineers and most used software is open source. A successful example is OpenClaws from Peter Steinberger (https://x.com/steipete) or many engineers and corporations from China release open source models competing hand in hand with the major players brings a lot of uncertainty.
Imagine an open source model that is just ‘good’ enough for 80% of the tasks to be automated AND it’s so efficient that you can run it on your laptop (like Opencode or Ollama) + open source/paid SaaS to make and run to manage the current product and areas like OpenClaws as I mentioned before.
so.. are we gonna need Anthropic and OpenAI? Are they gonna evolve or everything will crash?
Am I gonna continue using OpenAI to review and check the grammar for this post or I’m gonna use an open source model in a few months?
