You're very much appreciated 😊

[@judederick]

3 things to vertically differentiate 1. Vertical agent has exclusive access to high value dataset . Ex Corrosion detector agent has exclusive access to worlds largest refinery corrosion dataset 2. Vertical agent owns a key decision making node in workflow. Example : Next best action decision in equipment troubleshooting buddy sgent 3. Vertical agents own end to end workflow. Ex : Regulatory reporting agent in Pharma Trust that helps

[@Getrichwithme-zz]

You are absolutely right)))

[@vijayrangan]

I don't follow the narrative that these YC folks are pushing about boring jobs. If people working those jobs could get something else they would. Making a case for AI removing boring jobs just so it "allows" the current employees to leave is just nonsensical

[@firsthelix6726]

100%. We‘ll have a massive issue with this. The majority of people just want a normal job to pay for rent and living. Only a few are qualified and capable to reskill to deal with AI to stay ahead of the curve. AI will make intellectually challenging jobs redundant as well, and not because they are boring but because it can and will be much more time and cost efficient, which is and will be the guiding economic principle in a capitalist society.

[@Getrichwithme-zz]

I agree with you

[@bokchoiman]

Lots of people also need work to socialize. To stay sane.

[@jean-phil]

Life is more complicated than that, I used to do data entry but I lost that job 20 years ago when it was outsourced to India. So I went back to school and I got a degree in software engineering. After a few years developing software, nowadays I'm doing finance and paperwork mostly simply because it's easier and I get paid the same somehow. Both will probably be automated somehow at some point by AI. Then I'll just go back to school to find something else. Don't forget work is basically doing something someone else does not want to do. There will always be something someone does not want to do. At least until we have robots doing everything.

[@Penrose707]

The lump of labour "fallacy" is one that the tech community loves. "Don't worry about job automation today because these are simply yesterdays jobs. Embrace tomorrows jobs today" they say. Except, no one stops to consider any potential retooling time for the economy. It might well be that there will be new jobs "tomorrow". It's just that today there are millions of people waiting for that tomorrow- and it isn't coming anytime soon. What to do in the interim, hmmm? When will people wake up to see this I wonder ?

[@Getrichwithme-zz]

[@pjm17]

Yeah, but what is preventing SaaS companies from just pivoting their tech stack or integrating vAIs into their offering? Like trying to sell into these categories is extremely hard, even if the tech is cheaper, faster, better. These customers are exhausted.

[@scott_strang]

Innovator’s dilemma, not worth disrupting their own business model - though the smart ones may acquire agentic companies and roll them into product.

[@GeoMeridium]

Back in the final semester of senior year of college, I remember being excited to tell my career professor that I had a job offer. Initially, he seemed delighted, and asked, "what is the job offer?" "Sales", I replied. "Not my first choice, but base pay actually seems to pay rent." "Sales? Sales?!" He nearly collapsed before bursting into uncontrollable crazed laughter. "EVERYTHING IS SALES! EVERYTHING! EVERYTHING!!!" His laughter devolved into a choking wheeze, forcing him to pause and hyperventilate for a few minutes. Tears weeping from his wrinkled eyelids, he reaffirmed in a quieter voice, "everything is sales... everything... everything..." In that moment; I realized what I was in for, the dark reality of the working world.

[@pjm17]

​@@scott_strang The innovators dilemma is top of mind and commonplace at most orgs today. Although how previously relevant this concept has been, SaaS is a hyper aware segment to this notion since they previously implemented this exact playbook.

[@AlejandroCaslo]

Great point. These traditional SaaS will just buy these emerging vAIs and plug it with their existing customers. They own the last mile with customers, and Enterprise rip and replace software is not an easy switch.

[@firsthelix6726]

I guess there is some confusion here. SaaS is a business model that won‘t go anywhere. On the other side, Agents is a tech progression of the AI advancements. These are two different things. What will be the challenge for SaaS companies is to adopt their value proposition at a higher pace to avoid commoditization.

Loved this conversation! Two takeaways that stand out for me are: 1. The focus on founder-led teams at Rippling suggests that domain expertise and entrepreneurial thinking remain crucial even in an AI-driven future. Collaboration, Critical Thinking, Creativity and Communication will still be the foundation of how humanity progresses regardless of the tool. 2. The most successful AI startups might not be those with the best technology, but those with the deepest understanding of boring contextually-specific workflows. Two questions: 1. What does these 'new rules' look like decentralized? 2.With World Coin on a mission to bring a billion+ new 'players' into the game, how might we empower these traditionally underserved global communities? What a time to be alive!

What exactly does it mean to do" vertical " integration. Why not top-down, diagonal? Native ? 360 degree ? Genuinely asking ...

[@Creativeworld-123fs]

Vertical means, serving a industry from A-Z with your SaaS. you could choose any industry and build suite of tools for them to do everything they do. i.e: if you take milk manufacturing industry, your vertical SaaS would cover everything this manufacturing industry needs.... from getting the milk, storing, paying, selling, accouting every aspect is done by your suite of SaaS. This is why its called Vertical. You choose a industry, you go down deeeper and deeper

[@chriscotton4207]

It's a term not a catch phrase. It has a definition. I'm a vertical construction layout instructor. Meaning primarily MEP ( mechanical, electrical and plumbing) so we segregate civil, industrial, and vertical. ( Residential is not within my scope) Each industry utilizes cross industry definitions.

We'll have Vertical AI Agents (companies) helping executives or highly driven people with every single task in every single niche.

[@AIJay-Pro]

Same biz model as SAAS y'think? Subscriptions?

[@ai4marketers]

@@AIJay-Pro Yeah 100%. Maybe a bit lower price than SaaSs, but you'd still have to pay for intelligence APIs. With software there's no marginal cost of replication, but with Agents you have to add Intelligence buying to the COGS (cost of goods sold). What do you think?

[@Getrichwithme-zz]

It's inevitable.

[@whatifi-scenarios]

The trick is going to be business moats - how to differentiate from every other company that is now quickly capable of doing the same thing. Feels like a land grab and the winners will be more those that nail the marketing and branding. A few will develop unique tech inside the stack - but a lot will be "wrappers". Kind of like all the car companies that surfaced initially and now we're down to a handful.

[@neilhatly]

I think you'll still need people to build teams, of real people, but what will change is where the team coordinator requires a greater understanding of the tools available, as well as a priority to automate tasks. There is a danger of the automated stacks rotting away over a period of time, with vulnerabilities not being noticed until it is too late. So security overview has to be a key part to automation. Unfortunately, security is generally a lower weight problem to startups.

[@SrikantShirisha]

[@Hsleiman12]

Frankly, while this is exciting from a "let's see how far technology will go" perspective, it's mostly horrifying for millions of people whose jobs and livelihoods are now at risk. This resembles the automotive crash in NA where the majority of blue collar, manufacturing jobs disappeared overnight and no alternatives were presented until today. Just take a look at Detroit as a case study. It never stops amazing me to see so many people hop onboard these initiatives as though they will benefit from them, when in fact they stand to lose just as much as the average person. The NA business class is relentlessly cutting costs at the expense of the average worker, throwing them overboard and then calling them lazy after creating for them a state of dispossession and intense financial insecurity. The fact that this isn't apart of this discussion just shows how out of touch these hosts are with the average conditions of working class people.

enterprise-ai AI fixes this. Vertical AI Agents Outsize SaaS Potential

[@Getrichwithme-zz]

[@jean-phil]

21:05 "do random data entry or approvals or click the software" .. Yes and No ... the way I see it, it's more complicated than that. If you take "approvals" for example, that's not going to change, it's not like we are going to let AI approve anything. While AI might help analysing what needs to be approved and will make it more efficient, it's not going to remove that step. Regarding "random data entry", even if AI gets really smart, the reality is that Enterprises often have a lot of "legacy" systems and sure there is probably too much time spent on copying data between systems manually but if it's not something we have fixed via APIs yet, what makes you think AI will solve this ? ;p I mean, I like using chatbots to be more efficient and I'm sure there will be a lot of opportunities for vertical AIs but I think a lot of bureaucracy will remain. At least for the next 10 years, until Enterprises slowly switch to more AI friendly software/tools. You need to remember, a lot of software is custom and a lot of enterprises are quite niche, it can be hard for an AI to make sense of these. Sure Casetext appears successful but they "automated" a job (lawyer) that is very dependant on reading documents and with over 1 million lawyers in the States, it's a very common job somehow. I could see the same thing happening easily with programming for the same reasons. And sure there are other "quick" wins probably like the video game and film industry because both deal with digital information and sell digital products. But for the rest, not so sure. For example, I think these will take a longer time to be "profitable" for AI : retail, government, manufacturing and unpopular opinion : education. Finally, I don't know enough about finance and insurance to tell for these industries. Ok one last : "administrative work" .. it depends on what you think is "administrative work". Sure "scheduling tasks" and "organizational tasks" are easy wins. And maybe one "admin assistant" will be so efficient that, as a result, he/she will be able to work for multiple managers at once but I don't think it that it will replace them completely because some tasks can't be automated easily. Or maybe some will fire all admin assistants let the managers do the remaining work .. but that work will remain and more managers might be required as a result. Like you mention automating recruiting, sure it can automate some tasks .. but the whole job ? Again, I think it can be a great tool and will make people more efficient but will not replace entire teams. I mean, it will happen here and there but it will not have a massive impact on the job market until at least 5-10 years.

It won’t be about making money but efficiency and in fairness. Everybody trying to think about what we could do to change the world very quickly with AI because if we don’t unify and do all of this, I’m pretty sure AI is going to destroy us.

We give it a course to someplace like Alpha Centauri and not only is it improving its own model on the way there it might also build even better technology with resources we leave as a part of the structure. As it hops between solar systems, it gathers resources and makes probes out of the natural resources of that solar system so that we do not affect its balance or cause any sort of disease. We upload intelligence to the mechanical and biological life forms that we create, and they can more easily and safely explore those bodies.

You need to invest in B, C or even "D" level players with "A" ideas across the country. We are accelerating a society where most people will not be able to participate and improve. If the majority of society doesn't improve with AI they won't be able to buy anything let alone save and start businesses or even survive.
