is this slop? is this an ad? it's both!

dont bother reading this. besides the overwrought statement in the title there is nothing novel or intellectually stimulating here, and it wants to sell you something.

A better comparison would be XML.

What comes out of the other side will be better than what we have, but still not good... The next phase of XML agents is going to be its YAML age, better but not great, and we will just deal with it.

No, jQuery is a good analog for MCP. The author is absolutely right about the NxM -> N+M transition.

It's an ad but the jQuery analogy is apt.

Probably could have said it in much fewer words, though.

So in other words, it's AI slop

> MCP is war. Alright, enough with this bs blog.

The war part is more about the competing AI companies. It's meant to be an analogy to the "browser wars" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Browser_wars). Not meant to be BS, I just wanted to use the terms that were used during the early days of browsers.

For some reason this post refers to duct tape (or the brand of it called Duck Tape) as “Duktape”, which was confusing because Duktape is actually the name of a JavaScript runtime engine!
