Anthropic introduced MCP (Model Context Protocol) at the tail end of 2024, and Google launched the Agent2Agent Protocol (A2A) just this month. MCP standardizes connections between AI Agents/LLMs and external data/tools, kind of like ‘USB-C for AI’. A2A standardizes communication & collaboration between AI Agents, like a universal language / ‘Lingua Franca’ for Agents. Both of these protocols are groundbreaking in their own right, and John Capobianco joins the podcast to explain why. In this episode, we start with high-level basics and end with doing an unscripted live demonstration. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the impact and applications of these two innovations.
