AI First with Adam and Andy · 2026-02-11 · 12 min
This episode of AI First with Adam and Andy is an intentional experiment. The script, ideas, and analysis are entirely Adam Brotman and Andy Sack’s own. The on-screen hosts and voice delivery were generated using AI tools as part of a hands-on exploration of what these technologies can and cannot yet do. It is not perfect, and that is precisely the point. In this conversation, Adam and Andy tackle the increasingly popular claim that “software is dead.” Against the backdrop of roughly $830 billion in software market value repricing, they unpack the rise of AI agents, the pressure on seat-based SaaS models, and the market’s tendency toward one-sentence apocalypse narratives. They explain why software is not disappearing but evolving, as the interface shifts from dashboards and logins to ask, decide, execute workflows layered over systems of record. For restaurant and retail operators, this shift has real implications for permissions, audit trails, orchestration layers, and enterprise control. The core message is clear: software is not dying, but the way leaders interact with it is changing.
