This article details new prompting techniques for ChatGPT-4.1, emphasizing structured prompts, precise delimiting, agent creation, long context handling, and chain-of-thought prompting to achieve better results.
Solo.io donated Kagent, its open source framework for AI agents in Kubernetes, to the CNCF, and introduced MCP Gateway. They also unveiled automated zero-downtime migration and cost-analysis tools for Ambient Mesh.
This article provides a hands-on guide to Anthropic’s Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open protocol designed to standardize connections between AI systems and data sources. It covers how to set up and use MCP with Claude Desktop and Open WebUI, along with potential challenges and future developments.
This tutorial details how to use FastAPI-MCP to convert a FastAPI endpoint (fetching US National Park alerts) into an MCP-compatible server. It covers environment setup, app creation, testing, and MCP server implementation with Cursor IDE.
This article details the author's insights into AI function calling, its challenges, and the Agentica framework developed to address them, emphasizing the importance of JSON schema understanding, compiler support, and a document-driven approach.
This article details a comparison between Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Function Calling, two methods for integrating Large Language Models (LLMs) with external systems. It covers their architectures, security models, scalability, and suitable use cases, highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of each approach.
MCP is best suited for robust, complex applications within secure enterprise environments, while Function Calling excels in straightforward, dynamic task execution scenarios. The choice depends on the specific needs, security requirements, scalability needs, and resource availability of the project.
DeepMind researchers propose a new 'streams' approach to AI development, focusing on experiential learning and autonomous interaction with the world, moving beyond the limitations of current large language models and potentially surpassing human intelligence.
