Model routing already runs inside Snowflake, Databricks, OpenRouter, and NVIDIA, cutting token costs up to 85% while keeping frontier-level quality. πŸ”€πŸ’° The real question isn't if this becomes the default everywhere, it's when. We break down the platforms, the math, and the 2027-2028 timeline. πŸš€

TL;DR Is model routing already happening today, or is it still coming? It is already happening. Platforms like OpenRouter, Snowflake, and Databricks route requests to different models right now, but

πŸ­πŸ€– Vertical integration in deep tech isn't new; IT and OT convergence has been happening for years. What's different now is ownership: AI and robotics companies are becoming the power plant, the factory, the supplier, not just buying software from them. βš‘πŸ”© We look at why this is happening, why it won't last forever, and why bureaucracy, not the market, is the real risk to watch. 🧠

TL;DR Is vertical integration new in tech? No. Software and manufacturing have been converging for over a decade through digital twins, IT and OT integration, and embedded control systems. What's
