WTF Is the Context Layer? The Missing Infrastructure for Production Agents — Prukalpa Sankar

Summary

The main theme is the rise of the "context layer" in AI, moving beyond just raw content or intelligence. The speaker references Bill Gates' "content is king" essay and contrasts it with the emerging "context will be king" era, noting that AI's intelligence is increasing but its real-world usefulness and production adoption remain low. The takeaway is that true effectiveness in the human world, and by extension for AI, relies more on context and practical application than sheer cognitive ability.
