software isn't dying because AI is eating apps, it's dying because a whole generation's behavior has changed. last night before bed, my girlfriend pulled out her phone and spent 15 minutes using gpt voice to diagnose why her face was breaking out. she didn't google it, that didn't even cross her mind. we're in a transitionary period of the internet where most businesses are still built for being discovered on google or social media. earlier this year the number of people choosing AI for search over google was ~37%, and that was 6 months ago - which means it could be >50% now. there are a ton of products that will go extinct because information is more available than ever (that is 100% the result of AI), but a lot of the decreased traffic is the result of businesses that haven't transitioned to getting indexed by AI, and are losing ground with SEO. there's always going to be new opportunities, you just can't be stagnate with these market conditions.
