Agentic AI, Model Hype, and MCP and Agent Skills

Jonathan Harris cuts through Agentic AI, Model Hype, MCP and Agent Skills, Dirty Data, and Workflow Automation in this 60-minute Turing’s Torch: Artificial Intelligence Weekly briefing. What matters is simple: what is useful, what is undercooked, and who carries the risk once the demo glow wears off. Expect plain-English context on power, money, data, labour and control, with the usual vendor fireworks left outside where they belong. Longer episodes also leave room for the awkward plumbing: incentives, security assumptions, governance gaps, and the budget line nobody wanted to read.
