Summary

Enterprise AI usage caps are portrayed as a response to rising costs rather than a solution to their underlying cause, with the central argument that much agent spending goes toward repeatedly fetching and transmitting context instead of performing reasoning. Written by Airbyte Engineering Lead Davin Chia, the post promotes the idea of connecting business data to AI agents as persistent “living context” through Airbyte Agents, positioning richer and more readily available context as an alternative to restrictive consumption limits. The page also highlights related Airbyte content on context, data sovereignty, connector capabilities, and state machines for long-running agent workflows.
