Model Context Protocol: Connecting the Dots in the AI Ecosystem with Riaz ViraniAs AI agents grow more capable, the biggest bottleneck isn't the model — it's the context. In this talk, we'll explore the Model Context Protocol (MCP), a design pattern for managing long-lived memory and structured interaction between agents and external systems. You'll walk away with a deeper understanding of how to build context-aware AI systems that are more resilient, scalable, and useful in production.
