20 Minute Tuesday


For decades, content production followed a mistake: “We publish the information, and hope the user will find it.” Whether buried in PDFs or help centers, content was passive—disconnected from user context, intent, or experience.


In this talk, Stefan Gentz explores a bold vision of the future of technical content—from static delivery to dynamic orchestration. Fueled by AI, modular content, and headless architectures, content becomes fluid: discoverable, responsive, and deeply personalized.
