Been heads-down on some WebMCP experiments. My latest: a writeup, plus a fully in-browser demo running on on-device Chrome models (Gemini Nano via the Prompt API): – Demo: nearform.github.io/web-agents/ (Chrome 138+, flags on) – Post: nearform.com/digital-comm...

It’s really neat what modern browsers can do client side for AI apps! WebGPU acceleration, fast embedding, semantic search and more!

LLMs are only as smart as their context, something most teams realise too late. We break down the Model Context Protocol (MCP), a proven way to: - Structure data for LLMs at scale - Improve reliability and explainability - Avoid costly mistakes in production 📖 >> nearform.com/digital-comm...

Found myself surprisingly well focused today and then noticed I had left my phone with fully disabled networking to test an offline app…

🤖 Agent mode has now landed in GitHub Copilot, catching up with Cursor -- so which agent can tackle real problems better? Here's at least one experiment with a real task for an OSS project. nearform.com/digital-comm...

We are at an interesting crossroads of the AI hype cycle wherein a big chunk of new MCP servers are probably going to be vibe-coded… 😂

In 2023, a Google researcher wrote, “We have no moat, and neither does OpenAI.” The paper argued open-source AI would outpace closed models by iterating faster and offering more flexibility. It also predicted users wouldn’t pay for restricted models when free ones were as good. A prescient take.
