The Agentic AI Foundation and Linux Foundation on agentic AI

Agentic AI has grown rapidly in the past two years, and with that growth comes different tools that help agents work. Among those tools is the Model Context Protocol from Anthropic. In this episode of the Targeting AI podcast from AI Business, Jim Zemlin and Mazin Gilbert dive into the importance of agentic AI, the relevance of MCP, the nuances of openness in AI, and the responsibilities surrounding AI security and ethics. The conversation also touches on the future of personal agents and the evolving role of developers in the AI landscape, with the popularity of OpenClaw. This episode was recorded on-site in New York City last week at the MCP Developer Summit presented by the Agentic AI Foundation.
