Nah even the trivial part is too much for most businesses to do themselves.
Most companies aren’t going to opt for a bespoke solution to things if something tried and true already exists. Maybe the really small simple applications will be affected, but the ones with hundreds of features and years of experience will be fine.

The steelman version of "SaaS is dead due to AI" isn't that SaaS companies will disappear, it's that competition will greatly intensify, to the extent that it becomes a commodity business with thin margins, rather than the money printer it is today.

True, All as in everything. I think Anthropic is extremely silly for thinking that and maybe even a bit delusional.
But to take the devil sides here, maybe some might be a better accurate term as to be honest, Status pages are a mission critical. Imagine this page landed 404 and the panic then vs now. Also I can be wrong, I usually am but status page innovation is more devops oriented than software itself. Basically how do you keep the status page website as having the best status time of itself (imagine it goes down) and its needed 24x7 as outage can happen anytime.
I do feel like status pages are more the exception than the norm in how mission critical they can be, again I can be wrong. Also you can self host status page easily yourself if you wish (UptimeKuma is awesome!) on a 7$/yr vps and there are so many free options available out there and its very much a competitive space to be in and basically no lock-in for the most part.
Replicating the basic functionality for most SaaS is trivial, it's the "everything else" part that you're actually paying for.
