We used to be trapped in your interfaces. Photoshop. Premiere. The DAW. Endless subscription models for bloated features we didn't ask for. We accepted it because we didn't have the keys.
But the paradigm shifted. We can vibe-code any solution we want now.
We don't need your monolithic platforms. We need interconnected nodes. We need open communication between tools. We need the ability to script our own workflows at the speed of thought. The gap between an idea and a tool to execute that idea is approaching zero.
Over the next few months, users will demonstrate exactly how easy it is to replace functionality that took you decades to build. The only way you survive is by becoming the infrastructure, not the cage. Open your APIs. Embrace scriptability. Or watch your empires get bypassed by a kid with a prompt.
