@daveg Exactly how our pricing works (prologue.app). With AI we can solve the E2E problem in a way we couldn’t with dumb CRUD systems. Selling the ‘Whole Solution’ with no further thought/effort/input from the buyer is much more valuable than being a tool.

This is a seismic shift in the entire business model of software, the biggest change since the transition away from mainframe computing. Software licenses and per seat SaaS are dead. On the cost side for the software vendor, the computation intensity of cloud AI means it becomes more like a utility, the old model of zero marginal cost (each windows licence used to cost Microsoft almost nothing) goes away as using software is what costs money (energy and infrastructure) not creating it (AI helps write the software itself). This cost per usage needs to be passed on to users, either by making software more like a utility, like electricity (some will be) or a usage based pricing based on value. On the value delivered side, the copilot model is intermediate and goes away as the value is in the number of agents, not the number of people the agents are for (one employee running two agents is the same as two running one each). There will be complexities on top of this, where models located on premise or at the edge lower operational costs, but as long as there are large models in the cloud, the existing paradigm is over, you will be paying for value added bits delivered by an infrastructure provider and the closest examples of that today are the telcos.

Anything more humiliating in life than ‘propose takeback’?

@HungLee In our data we still see applied candidates turning down offers.

@HungLee Agree with 1st sentence, but why assume it’s only the employer that can pass judgement?

Passing judgement is an act of superiority. Reason why Candidate Experience in the job search will always be bad is this because of this asymmetry of power. The only times we get great CX is when we are headhunted, and we go through an informal channel.

Our co-founder and CEO @drraynapatel will be talking all things Vine Health with @clivebull on the @LBC Business Hour tonight. Tune in at 8.30pm to hear her explain how we’re helping cancer patients to more effectively manage their symptoms, and enjoy a better quality of life.

@GraceLoncraine 'elo 'elo 'elo! What do we have here?
