> What if software suddenly wanted to ship? What if all of that immense bureaucracy, the endless processes, the mind-boggling range of costs that you need to make the computer compute, just goes poof?

This is the piece of the puzzle I have yet to see. Claude is perfectly capable of writing code but that doesn’t clear up the bureaucracy. I suspect this is where a lot of little 1 to 10 person companies will have an edge. But that’s always been true. The test will be if the small companies can scale without issue or if they never have to.
