Precomputed context in Nexus leads to more reproducible AI results

Yorg Schad emphasizes that Nexus's approach of precomputing context, akin to materialized views, leads to more reproducible and reliable results from AI agents. This contrasts with on-the-fly retrieval, which can yield inconsistent answers due to the probabilistic nature of LLMs.

Second aspect of that, also with materialized views, I simply I get more reproducible results, right?
Yorg Schad
They're choosing something on the fly and so if I actually care about reproducible results, if I'm asking my data bot about a question, what has been the revenue last year? I really want a consistent answer over time.
Yorg Schad
So I think that kind of reproducibility is another important piece, which makes it more reliable, and with that, I think I'm also getting this audit trails, I'm getting lineage trails.
