The rise of malleable software - Express Computer
Summary
The author argues that falling development costs driven by AI are enabling a new class of 'malleable' enterprise software that adapts continuously to an organisation's workflows. He recommends separating stable data models from fluid application layers so AI can regenerate interfaces, workflows, decision logic and reports on demand. This approach reduces the need for expensive custom integrations and long development cycles, allowing systems to reconfigure quickly for new products or regulatory changes. The shift will change how enterprise software is built, sold and used by giving companies an alternative between off-the-shelf products and costly bespoke builds.
