Are we moving past the "Chatbot" era faster than people realize?

Is anyone else noticing how fast the conversation is shifting from "look what this LLM can write" to "look what this AI agent can actually execute"? For the last couple of years, the hype was all about prompting a box to get a text or image response. But lately, with the massive leaps in model reasoning and agentic workflows, it feels like the "chatbot" era is already starting to look primitive. We are moving from a tool that suggests answers to systems that actually spin up environments, debug code, handle multi-step workflows, and make decisions autonomously. It feels like the general public is still stuck thinking AI is just a glorified Google search, while the tech itself is quietly evolving into actual autonomous infrastructure. Are we on the cusp of the biggest UX shift since the smartphone, or is the current agent tech still too unreliable for real deployment? What’s the most impressive autonomous workflow you’ve actually seen work recently?
