AI Agent needs context engineering #ai #aistartup #aiagents

Hot take. Context engineering might be the answer to build reliable AI agents. But what is context engineering? Imagine you have a new intern and you need him to write a report. Prompt engineering would be telling the intern, hey, you need to write a report on this and this. You need to give me by this time. But context engineering would be showing all of your past data to the intern. Give him like a stack of past reports to read and also show him around the office and be like, so these are the people you can ask about what to write about and these are people who are going to be reading your report. And here are the computers that you can look up data for writing your report. Like show him the whole context. So context engineering would be including prompt engineering and rack and state and short-term long-term memory and a little bit of structure output like a whole dynamic system.
