"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Care to elaborate? MCP is a fairly basic concept and just a specific type of a web server, so its not exactly going to go anywhere anytime soon, since you are literally posting on a forum right now that uses the same tech, lol
Sorry, are you talking about MCP, or AP? I don't know why any usage of PieFed (what I'm using) or Lemmy would require MCP.
MCP as a way to make agents appear smart is a smoke screen. We already have APIs to enable different online applications to talk to each other, it's called REST, or Hypermedia if you want to get real fancy. We don't need yet another layer on top that obscures web properties and places them behind chatbots benefiting Big Tech megacorps and nobody else.
