Semantic layers may not be read by AI agents

Companies are building governance-backed semantic layers, but AI agents are obtaining business context elsewhere, VentureBeat reported. In the VB Pulse survey, the share of respondents saying they operate, pilot or build semantic layers rose from 58 percent in June to 67 percent in August. Yet only 13 percent in August cited the layer as a main context source. Document search led agent context sources at 32 percent, while direct queries jumped to 21 percent.
