Model Context Protocol (MCP) is presented as an emerging open standard initiated by Anthropic to bridge the gap between AI models and external data/tools.
- MCP allows AI models to request specific data or actions from external systems, rather than developers pre-loading all context.
- It functions by enabling AI assistants to 'pull' information and 'push' actions to applications, similar to how humans interact with software.
- This protocol aims to make AI more capable by improving its ability to use software tools, integrate with databases, and understand dynamic real-world context.
- MCP can enhance AI's interaction with web browsers, code editors, and other software, making AI assistants more powerful and versatile.
