When you look at what big AI companies like OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, Meta, and xAI are doing, it honestly feels like they’re not just building products anymore, Every time they launch something new, it ends up replacing what many small startups are trying to build.

That makes me wonder, what’s really left for startups in the long run?

As these companies move closer to AGI, will they slowly take over everything, or will smaller startups find smarter ways to survive and grow?
