No, they dont distrust AI, they now may start to distrust all the big service providers that are likelty to eventually be eradicated by AI now that everyone can prompt a browser. This perhaps will also finally kill Microsoft Access, which is the closest to AI doing the work instead of you for so long. Then all the do-it-yourself enterprise-grade systems became SAAS, so its right for SalesForce and friends to go fck themselves once in a lifetime for standing in the way of actual software ownership.
