Box CEO Says Context Determines AI Winners
Box CEO Aaron Levie said in a LinkedIn post this week that AI models and autonomous agents are rapidly commoditizing expert knowledge across professions, from law and medicine to research. He argued companies will win by giving models access to proprietary context—internal data, customer histories, workflows—and avoiding 'context rot.' Firms that organize and operationalize that context should see measurable productivity gains.
