NODES AI 2026: Opening Keynote: Exploring Context Graphs: From Data to Decisions
AI models are getting smarter—but production systems still fail for a simple reason: they lack context. In this panel moderated by Philip Rathle, Jaya Gupta, Animesh Koratana, Lasse Andresen, and Emil Eifrem explore the idea of context graphs as a new foundation for AI systems that can reason, adapt, and improve over time.
Rather than focusing on models alone, this conversation looks at the missing layer between data and decisions—how systems capture the “why” behind actions, learn from experience, and evolve with every interaction.
Join us for a forward-looking discussion on where AI infrastructure is heading and what it will take to build systems that truly understand the world they operate in.
