MCP is a fad 6 months ago

MCP is very easy to use because it allows to just dump it in the model api call and the providers handle the calling. A bit easier than running the tool call loop

cool thanks for that comment, I might update this in a couple weeks time since it seems to interest people but general feedback that it's too shallow. Wanted to give some high level intuition I gained after working on document processing for a while now as many people are still surprised that e.g. layouts aren't a real problem anymore but will take the hint that hn is a crowd that wants more depth! :)

1.) technically yes, most models used for that task are NLP but not LLMs in the modern sense though 2.) Actually they don't. Multimodal LLMs parse PDFs by taking multiple screenshots on each page.

It's really a shocker to me whenever I see people in obviously difficult situations worry about their productivity. Like is this really what modern life has become? Build whole identities around being productive and doing a good job to an extent that someone who sees a foundation of their life falling apart is feeling guilt about not doing enough for their work.
