AI Data Chats | Series: Practitioners

From “Context Stuffing” to Context Grounding for AI Systems

In this episode of AI Data Chats, we are joined by Hirsh Pithadia, co-founder and CEO of Vlayu. Hirsh is full of hot takes on how better data infrastructure can lead to higher quality, more performant AI systems, and why we should be moving away from what he calls the “context stuffing” approach that most RAG systems take. He also shares his take on this year’s buzzword “agentic AI”, and how to think about designing for the future agent populations on the Internet.
