Is the software industry facing a "mass extinction" event?In this episode of AI PHYSEC TODAY, we sit down with Steve Van Till, Founder & CEO of Brivo, to unpack his controversial and transformative thesis: AI is eating software.For decades, Marc Andreessen’s famous "Software is eating the world" mantra defined the tech landscape. But as Steve argues in his recent piece for Security Journal Americas, that era is over. We are now entering a phase where AI-native agents and autonomous code generation are dismantling traditional SaaS moats.What does this mean for the physical security industry?When a small team can clone a major SaaS platform in just 30 hours using AI, the "Build vs. Buy" calculus changes forever. Steve breaks down which parts of the security stack are vulnerable, which "moats" (like field service and regulations) might actually hold, and how integrators can pivot from being software resellers to AI orchestrators.🔥 In this episode, we cover:- The "Mass Extinction" Event: Why traditional SaaS categories are the most vulnerable to AI disruption.- 30-Hour Clones: The shocking reality of how fast AI can replicate complex legacy products.- The Physical Security Moat: Can field technicians and fire codes protect our industry from pure-digital disruption?- Build vs. Buy 2.0: Criteria for deciding when to build your own AI capability versus buying off the shelf.- The Integrator Opportunity: How service providers can ride the wave instead of being displaced by it.- The New Software Layer: If software is "eaten," what replaces it? (Hint: It’s about orchestration and agents).👤 About Our Guest:Steve Van Till is the Founder and CEO of Brivo, the global leader in cloud-based physical access control. A pioneer in the security industry, Steve is also the author of The Five Technological Forces Disrupting Security and serves as Chairman of the SIA Standards Committee.🔔 Subscribe for more insights on the future of AI in Physical Security.#AIEatsSoftware #PhysicalSecurity #SaaS #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #Brivo #SecurityTechnology #PropTech #DigitalTransformation #Innovation #FutureOfWork #AIAgents #TechDisruption #BuildVsBuy #SystemsIntegration
