From 'Meh' to Meaningful: Driving compliant, on-brand AI with context

Time: Thursday 14th May 10:30-11:00
Room: Te Aro
Track: Drupal Development

AI can generate text, designs and interfaces at lightning speed — but without the right context, results are often off-brand, non-compliant, or just plain 'meh'. Context is the difference between “AI that guesses” and “AI that gets it,” turning outputs into authentic, on-voice, and intentional meaningful results.

Drupal’s Context Control Center Module provides a single hub to capture and manage your organisation’s rules, policies and guidelines, then map them directly to AI features. Need government compliance, brand consistency or a specific tone? Context Control Center ensures every AI output aligns with your requirements.

Imagine being able to say:
“Every article summary must be 3 sentences under 300 characters.”
“Never use these restricted words.X, Y, Z ”
“Match accessibility standards WCAG X.XX automatically.”
“Keep all content at an 8th-grade reading level.”
“Always use our brand colours and typography.”

Instead of scattered style guides, briefs or prompts, Context Center centralises these rules so AI results are consistent, compliant and compelling.

In this session, we’ll explore why context is the missing ingredient for meaningful AI, which types of context have the biggest impact, real-world use cases, and how Drupal’s Context Control Center makes it simple to manage and deliver. You’ll leave with practical insights and a clear path to elevating your AI from “meh” to meaningful.

Learning objectives
At the end of this session, attendees will be able to:
* Apply context engineering principles to make AI outputs more authentic, consistent and aligned with their organisation’s goals
* Identify and categorise different types of context that improve AI performance in real-world Drupal use cases
* Use Drupal’s Context Control Center to organise and deliver context to specific AI agents for improved results
