Personally, I think this is the trend we'll see.

AI doesn't mean everyone will build their own software, at least not in the next 5-10 years. It means the unit economics have completely changed.

If you're charging $100/seat - you need to completely refactor your business. We might see the end of the $1 million+/yr enterprise software contracts.

IANAL: The correct approach here would be an O-1 Visa. Assuming your 'significant revenue' has also garnered you some level of public attention.

Re:Apple Pro Display XDR on Monday June 03, 2019 @04:18PM (#20088118)
Apple produced the best $6,000 display you can buy. When the majority of pro users wanted the best $1,500 display you can make. We want an iMac without all the computer part. And they delivered a real 'pro' display.

Maybe this is a big middle finger up to all those asking for Apple's pro line up to be more 'pro'.
