Context is King #6 – Building AI Agents on Real Data
Context is King is back for a sixth edition, this time in Paris, kicking off the AI Engineer Paris week. After five sold-out events in San Francisco, London and the Nordics, we're continuing what makes the event work: real implementation stories from builders at the AI frontier.
The focus is building AI agents on real data: what information an agent has access to, how it uses it, and how you ground it in production. Context windows, tools, memory, retrieval, MCP, agent harnesses. The playbook is being written in real time.
We're bringing engineers building with these systems to break it down. Expect implementation stories and live demos.
