Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

AI copilots have quickly become a board-level expectation. Once leadership sees a demo—natural language queries flowing seamlessly into internal systems—the question is no longer if but how fast.

AI explains your product before customers talk to you.
If your product can’t explain itself, AI fills the gaps with partial context.
Explainability is where context engineering becomes real.
