OpenAI's Symphony spec hit 15,000 GitHub stars in three weeks and explicitly removed MCP as a dependency. A week after we argued MCP was the new SaaS launch motion, the most-starred agent spec of the month skipped it on purpose. That's not a contradiction. It's a clarification.

The End of Single-Modal AI: Why Everything is Becoming Multimodal

Introduction For years, artificial intelligence evolved in silos. Text models wrote content. Image models generated visuals. Audio models handled speech. Each system was powerful but isolated. That era is ending. We are now entering a new phase of AI where systems no longer think in a single format. Instead, they understand and generate across multiple modalities text, images, video, and audio simultaneously. This is the rise of multimodal AI , and it is quickly becoming the default standard for
