SaaS is quietly being replaced by Agent-as-a-Service (AaaS) — are we ready for this?

This week had some interesting signals:

NVIDIA pushing infrastructure for AI agents

Alibaba launching enterprise agent platforms

Feels like we’re moving from SaaS → systems that actually execute tasks.

Not just dashboards, but AI that:

updates systems

triggers workflows

makes decisions

The interesting part:

The biggest challenge isn’t capability.
It’s control.

If an AI agent takes the wrong action inside your stack, the risk is very real.

Curious how people here are thinking about this:

Are you experimenting with agents yet?
Or does this still feel too early / risky?
