AI is moving beyond bigger models and better chatbots. Google is bringing multimodal AI directly onto devices. And OpenAI is training agents on complex, real-world business workflows. Together, these moves reveal where AI is heading into our devices, careers, and everyday work.

5 years ago mortgage rates were 3% and the average new home cost $450,000. Today, mortgage rates are 7% and the average new home costs $510,000. This is what destroyed housing affordability.
