At SaaStr's AI Summit, speakers break down AI opportunities in SaaS into three buckets: infrastructure, copilots for each job type, and AI-enhanced legacy apps. They argue generative AI will reshape work and life, with venture funding now flowing toward AI-focused founders.
How much of this Convo is about AI? Is it all AI? It's about 80%. We've divided the AI opportunities into three buckets. There's infrastructure, which is super hot. Second bucket is copilots. And I think there's going to be a copilot for every professional job category. Third category is pre AI SaaS, apps that get turbocharged in their value by adding AI functionality.
These forces are creating a transitional moment.
Generative AI is going to change the way we work, the way we live.
With new technology or new products. What are the second third order effects?
All the venture money in SaaS is going to AI founders. What magical things can we do with our product? And you have to be thinking that way. If not, you're not state of the art.
