You can now use the AI bot in the API playground!

This is a nice improvement to the API Playground. Having an AI assistant available while testing endpoints can make the development process much more practical, especially when working through unfamiliar APIs or debugging responses.

What I find interesting is the potential beyond development. Conversational systems can use APIs as the action layer behind the interaction, allowing a user to ask for something naturally while the system handles the underlying operations.

For example, a voice-based assistant could collect customer details, check information, create a record, or trigger a workflow through APIs. That kind of integration is where autonomous customer interactions become much more useful than simply having an AI answer questions.

The same architecture can also support multilingual customer conversations, while keeping the backend workflows and permissions consistent.

The API layer is really what makes these systems practical. The conversation is only one part of the workflow.
