Meta integrating image generation into social and ad surfaces points to a bigger shift: AI models are becoming platform features. When that happens, most users do not compare benchmarks. They use whatever model is already inside the app where they work, create, sell, or scroll. That creates a strange future. The “best” model may not be the most influential model. The most influential model may be the one with: default placement lower friction creator adoption advertiser budgets built-in feedback loops stronger moderation and safety rails This does not make benchmarks useless. It just means deployment context becomes part of model power. Open AI can still win here, but only if it becomes easy enough for normal teams to use without becoming infrastructure experts. Are we too focused on intelligence scores and not enough on distribution power? submitted by /u/Crescitaly
