The Linux Foundation today announced it's formed another foundation under its growing umbrella that extends well beyond the traditional "Linux" landscape: the Agentic AI Foundation.

The Agentic AI Foundation "AAIF" has been formed with Anthropic contributing the Model Context Protocol (MCP), Block's goose, and OpenAI contributing their AGENTS.md specification for guiding coding agents.

The Agentic AI Foundation aims for "a neutral, open foundation to ensure agentic AI evolves transparently and collaboratively."

Mmhm, "a neutral, open foundation to ensure agentic AI evolves transparently and collaboratively.

Yeah I can see no issues or conflict of interests here at all. /sarcasm

"Neutral" is meant for the members of the oligarchy, not you and me.
