What you'll learn

Understand the evolution of prompt engineering

Learn how AI systems evolved from simple prompts to complex ecosystems of memory, tools, retrieved knowledge, and agents

See how Information Architecture shapes AI behavior

Understand how labels, taxonomies, hierarchies, and relationships influence what AI systems prioritize and generate

Learn a practical framework for designing context

Explore IA principles: structuring content, improving findability, aligning to users' mental models

Why this topic matters

Context architecture applies Information Architecture principles to AI systems. As AI products rely on instructions, memory, tools, and retrieved knowledge, their outputs depend on how that information is shaped. Learn how IA methods such as taxonomy, ontology, and labeling help AI agents interpret information and produce better, user-aligned responses.
