The LLM landscape is increasingly starting to look something like this: (1) Model layer (e.g gpt3, cohere)(2) API bindings for access (e.g openai-python) (3) Infra layer for prompt chaining/model switching (e.g., @LangChainAI , @dust4ai ) (4) Next gen AI-first apps. what's missing?

shipping AI without calling it AI is underappreciated. it brings back focus on users and value; no hype, just utility that users gradually rely on. often the best solutions hide complexity behind simple interfaces.
