Real-Time Data Integration for Seamless AI Communication
The AI revolution is here, but there’s a critical problem: how to effectively connect AI models with existing data infrastructure and systems? Many reinvents the wheel when integrating data from multiple sources, such as databases, APIs, file systems, and other tools. Imagine if every appliance needed custom wiring instead of plugging into a standard outlet.
Model Context Protocol (MCP) solves this by creating a universal standard for AI-tool communication, and Python is emerging as the language for building these integrations.
This talk will transform how you think about building AI-powered applications. You’ll learn to create MCP servers that make your Python applications instantly accessible to any AI model – from Claude to GPT to local LLMs – through a standardized, secure interface.
Unlocking the Power of Data: Effective Reporting with Excel
I'll be exploring the capabilities of Excel in data reporting, including: advanced PowerBI functionalities like data modeling, connecting to various data sources, transforming the data, and integrating them for analysis. Attendees will gain insights into best practices for both tools and learn how they can integrate them for enhanced data analysis.
An intelligent travel agent
I delve into the innovative concept of an AI-powered travel agent using Anthropic AI and travel planning services. This session focuses on the creation of personalised itineraries generated from natural language prompt, making travel planning more intuitive and user-friendly. I discuss the past challenges in achieving real-time integration across systems and introduce the Model Context Protocol (MCP) as a breakthrough solution. MCP standardise communication between tools, significantly enhancing the efficiency of AI applications. The demo features an AI agent planning a trip to London, showcasing how MCP enables it to pull live data from multiple sources. This not only illustrates the agent’s capabilities but also highlights the transformative potential of the technology in the real-world.
