This post argues that machines do not fail because they lack intelligence, but because they cannot effectively reduce information entropy on their own.
- The claim is that AI systems need preprocessed context to work well.
- It is used to motivate the idea of Context Engineering 2.0, which reframes how humans should prepare inputs and structure interactions with AI.
