The article discusses how AI agents are transforming the way data is organized and utilized, moving away from rigid tabular structures to more flexible, interconnected data models. This shift is driven by the need for applications to be more intelligent and context-aware, requiring vast and complex datasets. The database layer is becoming increasingly critical, with AI agents necessitating richly structured data to enable near-human levels of logic and intuition.
