The Quiet Revolution in Everyday AI
Assistants stopped being novelties and became infrastructure. What changed while no one was watching?
For most of the last decade the story of artificial intelligence was told in launches and demos. The real shift happened quietly, in the software people already used every day.
From feature to foundation
The models did not get more visible. They got more reliable, cheaper to run, and small enough to sit inside the tools we already trusted.
What a joyous occasion.
