Context Window
The context window is the amount of text a model can take into account at once, covering the prompt, any documents supplied with it and the answer being written.
Why It Matters
It sets what a model can be asked to do in a single pass, from reading a contract to reviewing a codebase, and longer windows cost more to run.
