Let's Learn MCP (Model Context Protocol) | Sue Bayes

Join me as I take you through my learning of MCP servers and share my knowledge and experience. The best way to learn something is to teach it, I want to know and learn more about MCP servers, so am committing to this session to share it with you.

MCP servers provide a standard way, or protocol, to connect LLMs with data, tools, and resources. The MCP website describes MCP as a universal adaptor for AI applications. In the same way that a universal adaptor lets you connect your physical devices to accessories, MCP lets you connect AI applications to other data and tools without needing to build a custom connection to each data source.
