Introduction
As I mentioned in my last post, I've recently started making more serious use of MCP and conversation memory in Claude. Neither of these are new features — they've been around for a while. I just finally got around to actually using them.
The changes turned out to be subtle but significant. My relationship with AI, or the sense of distance between us, shifted more than I expected.
At the core of it, I think it comes down to the elimination of explanation cost — the effort of having to re-explain everything from scratch every single time.
I wrote about MCP in my previous article, so consider this a continuation of that.
