Short summary

Jason Fried challenges the hype around the 'bespoke software revolution' driven by AI. Most businesses don't actually want to build and maintain custom tools; they want their problems solved efficiently without tech debt. Even as AI lowers barriers to entry, rational actors will keep buying solutions rather than building custom systems.

• •Most businesses want problems solved, not custom systems to maintain
• •Building tools isn't most people's wheelhouse, regardless of ease
• •Tech industry enthusiasm misreads as broader market demand
