Sam Altman Predicts AI Agents Will Integrate Any Service They Want, with or without Official APIs
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman warned that every company is effectively becoming an API provider as generative AI agents learn to write code that accesses services, even without official endpoints. He predicts a platform shift where AI agents bypass traditional user interfaces, integrating directly with back‑end systems. Companies that embed AI strategically into robust core platforms will retain value, while niche SaaS solutions risk becoming redundant. Recent AI‑driven tools have already pressured valuations of software firms that lack such integration.
