Bernard Golden, CEO of Navica, argues recently that fears of AI-driven disruption to enterprise SaaS are overblown, asserting SaaS vendors may instead benefit from AI. He points to persistent barriers—enterprise DIY failures, startups' scale and integration challenges, and model-makers' difficulty shipping vertical software—as reasons incumbents can adopt AI and retain market dominance.
