Summary from the TLDR AI newsletter

There is an emerging paradigm of Managed-Service-as-Software (M-SaS) startups, where AI-driven service-oriented startups build their companies according to a new business model blueprint. This requires a fundamental shift in mindset for startups to use AI, rather than to sell AI. Initially labor-intensive with low gross margins, these startups gradually shift to higher SaaS-like gross margins through automation and AI.
