Love the session. And Pat was being very euphemistic. By "replacing services with software", it really means "replacing human workers with software"

Now instead of farmers imagine what’s about to happen to millions of software engineers. These people love this so much because it will empower the business people to cut engineering completely out of the process of creating new products.

"Hi everyone, here are the industries where we can most quickly/efficiently make human workers disposable, and transfer their salaries into shareholder profits!

My favorite part of this video is how gleeful these investors are about creating massive labor and privacy problems, on top of the existential nightmare.

One good "halfway point" that's good for anyone who wants to catch-up, and not feel it's dumbed down or spoonfed.
