AI rollouts rarely fail because the model is incapable. They underperform because the context we feed the model is messy. Every interaction rides on a signal path—prompts, retrieved text, policies, tool traces, and prior turns. When that path is cluttered with filler, duplicates, or outdated information, the model focuses on the wrong things. That waste is contextual noise. The remedy isn’t a bigger prompt or a larger model; it’s less, but better, context. Treat tokens like a budget, not a landfill.
