Introduction: Why Context Matters
• Context is the information 
surrounding a question or request Why it matters
• The same words can mean different 
things in different situations Better context 
means better and 
• Generative AI uses context to give safer AI answers.
relevant answers
• Missing context leads to vague or 
incorrect responses
• Understanding context helps users 
write better prompts

Core Concepts: What Is Context?
• Context is what the model considers 
when responding Definition
• Text is read as small units called 
tokens Context is the 
information a model 
• Attention weighs which words matter uses to interpret a 
most to each other request.
• The context window limits how much 
text fits at once
• Models learn patterns; they do not 
think like humans

Key Components of Context
Prompt Tokens Embeddings
Your instructions, Small text pieces the Numbers that capture the 
question, and examples model processes meaning of words
Attention Context Window Added Knowledge
Links related words, even Amount of text the model Documents or chat history 
far apart can consider added to the request

How It Works: Step by Step
1 User sends a prompt with instructions and details
2 Text is split into tokens and turned into embeddings
3 Attention links related words across the whole input
4 Model predicts the most likely next token, repeatedly
5 Tokens form the response, shaped by the full context

Tools and Technologies
Transformer models Weigh word relationships using attention
Embedding models Turn text into meaning-based numbers
Vector databases Store and search embeddings, such as FAISS
RAG Adds relevant company documents to the prompt
Connect models, data, and tools, such as 
Orchestration tools
LangChain

Chatbots use Assistants Tools summarize Coding assistants 
order history to summarize long contracts and read project files 
answer notes for policy documents to suggest code
accurately clinician review
Relevant context makes outputs specific and useful.
