Structured Context vs Raw Text for AI
ETH Zurich found AI-generated context files hurt agent performance by 3%. The problem is structure, not volume. Here's what the research says.

New research analyzed 3,282 MCP bug reports. The patterns reveal a context delivery problem, not a protocol problem. Here's what the research shows.
A context window is the total text an AI model can process at once. Learn how they work, why size isn't everything, and what actually affects performance.
GPT-5.2 hallucinate at 10.8%, o3-pro at 23.3%. The fix has less to do with better models and more to do with better context engineering.
Prompt engineering is a dead end. Context engineering is the discipline replacing it. Here's what it is, why it matters, and how to apply it.
RAG is a context-building strategy, not magic. Research shows 70% of retrieved passages miss the mark. Learn why naive retrieval produces poor context and what actually works.
Research shows LLMs drop from 95% to 60% accuracy as context grows. Learn about context rot, the lost-in-the-middle problem, and why bigger context windows aren't the solution.
