In 1960, shipping a truckload of medicine from Chicago to an interior city in Europe cost $2,400—about $25,000 today. Half of that was spent covering ten miles on each end. Eight days to load. Eight days to unload.
A dozen vendors touching every piece of cargo: truckers, railroads, port warehouses, steamship companies, customs, insurers, and freight forwarders. The distance wasn’t the expensive part. Every port, crane, warehouse, and customs form assumed a human had to handle every crate.
The shipping container didn’t fix any of those systems. It made them obsolete. Once the unit moving through the infrastructure changed—from individual cargo handled by longshoremen to sealed boxes handled by machines—every layer had to be rebuilt. Ports, cranes, trucks, railcars, insurance, customs, and labor contracts.
The container was just a steel box. The rebuild took twenty years.
The assumption starting to break now is the same kind: the user is a person.

I built a map to track AI agent infrastructure—how open it is and how that changes as the stack takes shape. Five layers, compute to payments, 33 companies scored against a rubric (“Can you use this without one company's permission?”).
Scores live in a database so we can see how things move over time. The whole thing is open source.
https://lab.sideband.pub/map/
I'm probably wrong about some of it, and 33 is just a start. Suggest a company or challenge a score:
