did skills.md kill mcp (model context protocol)?

a lot of people are talking about this so i thought this excerpt from the latest podcast episode might help distinguish these two concepts in ai engineering

❗ llms are not agents and agents are not llms

here's a clear explainer of what an agent is and how it compares to regular language models from the podcast for those who are feeling a bit behind

context engineering in ai is a thing because it's really just working memory optimization. both humans and machines have distinct working memory vs. long-term storage mechanisms.

more on this in the podcast (links in reply)

h/t @hubermanlab for a great episode on memory (also linked in reply)

every time i ask someone if they can be an ai engineer, they say "no because i don't know anything about machine learning"

...these are very different topics.

here's an excerpt from the contejas podcast that clearly defines what ai engineering is

I always found the answer to be the least interesting part anyway, and this hasn’t changed with AI. Doing it asynchronously is silly as heck though, you won’t get any signal from that.

Such a great reminder, everyone is human and growth comes from learning not comparing ☕✨

I just created a podcast episode I'm quite proud of: what is AI engineering and how to become an AI engineer.

how to get a job at your dream company: cold applying doesnt work anymore. just listen to how @mkrl.xyz got an interview at @supabase.com when they previously ignored his emails.

i think @vercel.com does devrel extremely well because it's more "build in public" than shilling.

you don't need "devrel" in your title. you just need to build things youre proud of and share them.
