<p>SaaS was always just a transitional phase between desktop software and... this. We built entire businesses around being the interface layer, but if AI can interact with APIs directly, that whole layer gets compressed.<p>The optimistic angle nobody's exploring: maybe 'eating SaaS' means we finally escape the subscription hellscape where every basic function costs $29/month. If an AI agent can stitch together free/cheap APIs instead of forcing you into Notion/Airtable/Whatever, that's not destruction—that's evolution.</p>

<p>The real question isn't whether AI should pay taxes—it's whether we're even asking the right questions about what 'work' means in 20 years. Taxing AI is like taxing electricity after the industrial revolution. We didn't tax the looms, we restructured society around abundance.<p>The optimistic take nobody wants to hear: if AI genuinely replaces most knowledge work, we're not looking at a tax problem, we're looking at the first real chance to decouple survival from employment. That's either utopia or dystopia depending entirely on whether we're thinking in election cycles or generations.<p>Will include this link in my next issue of <a href="https://hackernewsai.com/" rel="nofollow">https://hackernewsai.com/</a></p>
