I reflect on changes in the indie hacking community, especially how Twitter’s algorithm elevated a few “stars” and reduced sharing of useful lessons. I discuss how AI is transforming bootstrapping and SaaS, making coding accessible and raising anxiety about job security. I explore how software is becoming a commodity, what this means for developers and founders, and why owning distribution and marketing will matter most. I share thoughts on diversifying businesses beyond SaaS as AI rapidly evolves, and invite feedback from listeners about their own experiences with AI and entrepreneurship.Twitter: <a href="https://x.com/wbetiago" rel="nofollow">https://x.com/wbetiago</a>Linkedin: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/tiago-ferreira-48562095/" rel="nofollow">https://www.linkedin.com/in/tiago-ferreira-48562095/</a>Timestamps by PodSqueezeIntroduction and Episode Overview (00:00:00)  Podcast Housekeeping and Call for Reviews (00:01:37)  Tiago’s Indie Hacking Beginnings (00:03:06)  Golden Days of Indie Hacking Community (00:04:27)  Rise of Indie Hacking Stars and Algorithm Shift (00:05:45)  Vanity Metrics and Decline of Knowledge Sharing (00:07:17)  Personal Impact and Disconnection from Community (00:10:12)  Platform Comparison: Twitter vs. LinkedIn (00:12:47)  Transition to AI and Future of SaaS (00:14:13)  Personal Story: Co-founder’s Journey with AI Coding Tools (00:14:13)  AI’s Impact on Coding and Productivity (00:15:56)  AI in Daily Work and Expanding Use Cases (00:17:09)  Anxiety Over AI Replacing Computer-Based Jobs (00:20:08)  Threat of Big Tech and Commoditization of Software (00:21:31)  Changing Developer Job Market and Skills Gap (00:22:56)  Importance of Distribution and Marketing (00:25:56)  Existential Questions: AI Replacing Human Intelligence (00:27:16)  Human Value in a Post-AI World (00:31:48)  Diversification as a Survival Strategy (00:34:25)  Uncertain Future and Final Reflections (00:35:39)
