AINews (@Smol_AI to subscribe) today summarizes the buzz about "context engineering".
Credit to @dexhorthy for coining this very useful term. I've been talking to voice AI developers a lot over the past few months about the need to do _this thing_ for a while: compress, summarize, focus, tune the context in specific ways for specific segments of a voice AI conversation/workflow. It's hugely useful to have just the right term to describe "this thing". Makes it much easier to talk about!
