My point exactly. When everyone has the ability to create similar software, the real challenge—and differentiator—becomes distribution. It’s not just about building the product anymore; it’s about knowing how to effectively sell and market it. I'm willing to bet, this single person company will come from someone who deeply understands GTM.

Your premise is flawed because if AI is good enough to replace technical people, then it is also good enough to replace non-technical MBA types. So non-technicals don't have any skill monopoly.

You are also implying that technical is easier than non-technical, which I don't think is true.

Previously the cliche has been that a technical person can learn the non-technical skills, but that vice versa is not so true.

I understand where you are coming from. However, my thought is, the non-technical person would not have to learn every single detail that a technical person has become proficient in to ship a valuable product. Only time will tell. It's still early, but it's already happening.
