According to Foresight News, OpenAI founder Sam Altman announced via a tweet that the company is pleased to incorporate support for the Model Context Protocol (MCP) in its products. MCP is currently available in the proxy SDK and will soon be supported in the ChatGPT desktop application and response API.
The Model Context Protocol, developed and open-sourced by Anthropic, aims to standardize interactions between AI models, particularly large language models, and external tools and data sources. Its objective is to enable AI systems to connect more efficiently to various external resources, such as databases, file systems, and APIs, thereby enhancing the flexibility and practicality of AI applications.
