what is the point of an "ai-terminal" when you can already just directly run ai in a normal terminal

your banner says:

> Bring any AI model into your terminal

its already there. there is no need for a special terminal to do this. in fact better to not have such a thing

Despite the newish "AI" branding for what I would presume is marketing buzz reasons, most of Warp is really centered around trying to make a terminal interface not anchored to legacy assumptions, like the blocks functionality (https://docs.warp.dev/terminal/blocks).
This page doesn't tell me anything useful about what this feature does or how it works. The attached screenshot is pointless. I assume the actual information is in the embedded Youtube video. YouTube is not an acceptable alternative to written documentation
