The Master Control Program (MCP) is redefining how AI learns and operates inside organizations. Instead of relying on generic training data, MCP gives Large Language Models direct access to an enterprise’s metadata, business glossaries, and systems, making AI context-aware, accurate, and business-aligned. With MCP, AI becomes not just smarter, but customizable to your workflows, terminology, and governance needs. This unlocks trust, scalability, and true competitive advantage.

But MCP is still evolving — with challenges around standards, engineering overhead, and the critical need for strong data quality. I’ll explore both the promise and pitfalls of MCP, and show how it can transform AI from a generic assistant into a precision engine for organizational knowledge and decision-making.
