7:40pm - Classic Presentation: "MCP Deep Dive" by Karthik Kathari

Model Context Protocol (MCP) has emerged as a standard way for AI models to securely interact with external tools and systems. This session provides a practical deep dive into MCP architecture, core concepts, client, server side impl and real-world integration patterns. We will explore how MCP enables structured tool calling, improves interoperability, and simplifies AI integration in existing applications. The talk will include examples of connecting AI models with APIs, databases, and enterprise systems, with a focus on how developers can adopt MCP.

Parking is available behind the building.
