SaaS is Dead: How Vibe Coding Killed It from Within

SaaS *is* dead. But not because AI "killed" it, because AI killed it

I argue that SaaS isn't dead because AI replaced it, but because 'vibe coding' destroyed its reliability from within. Current AI tools prioritize speed over control, ignoring engineering standards and leaving professionals without oversight. While markets push for 10x acceleration, the reality is a lack of deterministic tools for real software engineers who need to enforce rules and maintain quality.

"These tools are built on the premise of AGI, where you don't really need software engineers. Everyone can code while vibing and enjoying a drink on a beach with their laptops."
