The speaker cites software spending reached 675 billion in 2024, marking a nearly 50% increase from 2020 as the world increasingly relies on software. Innovations like self-driving cars, home robotics, and remote-controlled blue-collar jobs all require software to become a reality.
Hear it at 0:00 →world, it's using more and more software every single day. And if you can believe it, well software spending reach 675 billion in 2024, a nearly 50% increase compared to 2020. The world is buying exponentially more software in 2024, 2025 and beyond. And the future is powered by software. There is no other way we can deliver self-driving cars, and we can have mainstream robotics, having a robot at your home, doing stuff around your home.
And even blue color jobs are getting moved towards tech, meaning that you won't have a bus driver, but you will have someone driving a bus remotely from their home or from an office, and the bus it's somewhere miles away controlled remotely. And this is already being tested, this is already happening. All these innovations that will lead to a more productive society are need software to become a reality.
And of course, there is new software use cases, things like clerk, which is a tool to provide authentication, Axx, very famous bank that we use at the CNETF, platforms like Deal, who didn't even existed a few years ago. Humanity runs on software and that software is being created and maintained mostly by human software engineers.
