My company is doing the same.

You have to consider it. A lot of SaaS vendors are repricing their services lately in the name of native AI. Significant markups in rates, you have to look at alternatives for already expensive core services with AI features you don’t necessarily think fit your business activities.

I mean is this a scare? They need to diversify and improve their product offerings. This is a tale as old as time.
I'm doing this now and have cut 2 tools out of our workflow (appcues, miro) because Claude built exactly what I needed in about 2 weeks with my spare time.

look for software companies that make it possible to spend less on legacy software. Software isn’t going anywhere. Open source AI is t going anywhere.
the application layer will only become more powerful and more embedded as AI decision making becomes more and more adopted. I don’t think the question is (any longer) “what can AI do?”…AI can do anything including writing an an entire operating system. The question will be “how do I use it to produce outcomes?” and for that you need software
AI wants to ingest ALL of the data, because it can. Humans don’t operate that way

Man the risks here seem extreme... How can they trust someone hasn't put in exploits or whatever in the code AI is using?

It reads like some PR campaign they’re using to negotiate lower prices.

I have no doubt that internal teams will be able to build some in house tools and automatons that they are currently relying upon outside vendors but the core services of companies like Oracle, Salesforce or MS will be safe. I think AI will help companies on both sides.
Free OpenOffice / Libra Office has been out for over 20 years and people still buy Excel.
Even services like Wordpress that many people are replacing with AI generated websites will still enjoy a huge portion of the market going forward for reasons of security, familiarity and scale.
Enterprise will require enterprise support and security.
