Drupal AI has stopped being a scatter of provider-specific contributed modules that whoever needed them bolted on separately. It is now one coordinated project with an abstraction layer underneath it, a security-team-covered release cycle, and a packaged product in Drupal CMS that offers to switch parts of it on during installation. The question worth asking has moved on from whether Drupal can do AI to which parts of it are worth turning on, and what each one costs once four editors use it every working day.

Most write-ups stop at the demo. Somebody types a prompt, a page appears, a chatbot creates a content type while you watch. The demo is real. What it does not tell you is what leaves your infrastructure when an editor clicks that button, which of the modules on the list have never shipped a stable release, and which budget line actually grows.
