Number one.

Let's see what we got here.

We've got a story coming out of a combination of joining forces, if you will, of Anthropic, the Linux Foundation, and a new organization called the Agentic AI Foundation.

So...

For sure, for sure.

And it's not just them.

It's pretty much everybody's got a hand in it, right?

So the Linux Foundation has launched the Agentic AI Foundation or the AAIM.

It's going to act as a neutral home for open standards and open source projects focused on AI agents.

So for our listeners who don't know, agentic AI means AI systems that can decide and act on a user's behalf, not just answer questions.

Founding technical contributions include Anthropix MCP, or Model Context Protocol.

And it's an open way for AI apps to plug into tools and data sources.

We've talked about MCP often on the show.

From Block, they're offering up Goose, an open AI coding agent.

And...

OpenAI is agents.md, a simple format that describes how a coding agent should work with a given code base.

Major backers include AWS, Google, Microsoft, OpenAI, Anthropic, IBM, Salesforce, Bloomberg, and Cloudflare.

The foundation's pitch is that shared protocols for how agents talk to tools, repos, and each other will make it easier to build reliable, interoperable systems similar to how web and email standards made the early internet usable.

Wired and other outlets note that this also gives U.S.

and allied firms a way to coordinate an open structure as Chinese labs push powerful open models of their own.
