## The Source of the Problem

Enterprise AI agents can confidently provide wrong information. This often stems from missing or inconsistent business context. According to research, 57% of companies have faced this issue.

## The Importance of Context Layer

The context layer is a solution that ensures AI agents access correct information. This layer consistently defines the meaning of business data and prevents it from being re-derived by each agent.

## The State of Companies

75% of companies do not yet have a context layer. However, 78% of companies that have faced this issue have started building a context layer.

## Approaches by Technology Providers

Tech giants like Microsoft, Google, and AWS are developing different architectures for the context layer. Each approach focuses on ensuring AI agents access correct information.

## Analysts' Views

Analysts state that AI agents need not just better models but also governed and current context. This will ensure AI processes information correctly.

## Practitioners' Challenges

Practitioners face challenges due to the lack of compatibility between different tools. This negatively impacts the performance of AI agents.

## Looking Ahead

AI agents will not just retrieve information but process it with a reasoning architecture. This will allow long context to function like short-term memory.
