Marc Andreessen ( @pmarca ) was right about software eating the world but only halfway. Strip any job to its atoms (surgeon, lawyer, warehouse picker, CEO, developer, therapist etc.) and you will find the same repeating primitive: Decisions and Actions. That's it. Every job, every workflow, every profession is just a unique permutation and combination of these two things at different frequencies and amplitudes. Creative work runs high decision cycles, low action output. Physical labor flips it. A surgeon runs both at high frequency, interleaved at speed. A CEO is almost pure decision, their actions are just emails and signatures. All work are permutation and combination of the some decisions and some actions. Software automated the "Action" part of the work. Every SaaS, every API, every app ever built is the same thing: trigger starts a function. Functions are packaged, portable, infinitely scalable action. It was so economically violent that it felt like it had consumed everything. Borders, Blockbuster, Kodak, entire industries. But it didn't. It only ate one strand of the DNA of work. Every product still had a human in the chair, deciding what to trigger, when, and why. Software ate action but the decision layer stayed human. Decisions require judgment, context sensitivity, ambiguity tolerance, pattern recognition across incomplete information. That needs intelligence. And intelligence wasn't available on-demand. This is why knowledge workers felt untouchable. They weren't doing the clicking. They were deciding what to click. AI changes this entirely. AI isn't just better software. That's the most important distinction being missed. Software is "action on trigger". AI is "decision on demand". Connect AI to software tools and you complete the loop for the first time. You can now build entities that can decide and act autonomously, end to end. These are not tools that assist in work. These are Entities that can do the whole work. Marc said software would eat the world. It ate one part of the work. Now, AI is here to finish the meal. But counterintuitively, this doesn't kill software jobs, it creates infinite demand for them. Every workflow that can now be automated needs to be built. Healthcare, legal, logistics, finance, research, each is a fractal of decisions and actions, and each is now a software problem. The total addressable market just became every human workflow that exists. But the AI beast is feral. It hallucinates, drifts, breaks at edge cases, needs guardrails, evaluation loops, and trust builds incrementally. Someone has to tame it, wire it to real systems and make it work in production. The developers who understand they are no longer building tools but building entities will not get replaced. They will evolve into the architects of everything that does the replacing.

We saved our customers over $1.3 Billion in 2025 alone. That value has helped @Airwallex reach $1.2 Billion in ARR, growing 85% YoY. @Deel, @McLarenF1 , @boltapp and 200,000+ other customers trust us because legacy banking wasn't meant for global businesses: • Opening a bank account in a new country takes weeks • SWIFT transfers take 3-5 days • Other platforms convert your money even when you don't want to But with Airwallex you can: 1.

When you need to pay a UK vendor or run Australian payroll, you can simply pay from the same currency in your Airwallex account which leads to zero conversion fees. 2.
