Software Is Over - WAN Show October 9, 2026
Summary
The WAN Show covers the viral rise of AI-built Adobe alternatives like Photon Studio and Artcraft, which use decompilation and AI reconstruction to recreate the creative suite. The hosts also discuss the rapid progress of the PS5 emulator, noting that modders are achieving controllable gameplay on PC before GTA 6 releases. Additionally, they review the new Microsoft Surface Laptop Ultra powered by NVIDIA’s Spark N1X chip, designed for local AI agents, while sharing a disastrous personal experience with the Google Book’s broken audio and software.
