MCP launched a revolution in peoples expectations of what Generative AI could achieve. Since then, MCP has been supplemented by other protocols, techniques and extensions.
At Hugging Face we have 1000s of AI Applications deployed, using MCP for interconnectivity, as well as supporting Remote MCP via Inference Providers.
This experience based session explores how inference, compute and storage workloads are shifting in an agentic world, and how MCP supports us in a rapidly changing environment.
We will: - Contrast how ACP and Open Responses work within our MCP infrastructure and our experience deploying them. - Explore how Skills, and Code Generation fit, the impact future models will have on the landscape - and why things that may seem obvious in hindsight weren't. - Discuss the value of multi-model environments and how subagent patterns are critical for certain tasks. - Report on the trends we see in shifting Agentic and Inference workloads, and MCPs continued role in supporting them - Examine our unique multimodal demands - and what needs we and our community have to support mixed content.
Shaun Smith leads Open Source MCP at Hugging Face, and is an MCP Steering Committee member serving as a Community Moderator and within the Transports Working Group.
