The
Model Context Protocol is a game-changing open standard introduced by
Anthropic in November 2024, which allows various AI systems to connect with external tools & services. Imagine MCP as a universal
adapter—similar to what USB-C did for connectivity in electronics—allowing AI tools to access a wide range of data sources without the need for extensive custom wiring and integrations. This means your AI systems, whether they're chatbots or personal assistants, can gather information seamlessly from a myriad of applications, making them
smarter and more functional.
