 Available now for Radix and Base UI.
 
+## AI Elements
+
+This does not replace [AI Elements](https://ai-sdk.dev/elements/overview). You
+can keep using AI Elements for AI interface components and patterns. This
+release is about bringing the core pieces of chat into shadcn/ui, one component
+at a time.
+
+If you are already using a component from AI Elements, you do not need to
+rewrite your app. Keep what works. Try the shadcn/ui version when you want the
+newer abstraction, the updated styling, or support across Radix and Base UI.
+
+The goal is to make these pieces easy to adopt independently. Replace one part,
+compose it with what you already have, and keep building.
