If only AI models are trained to connect to data (sql) and use that to answer some of the questions using data source instead of just train on them, it could reduce model size a lot.

  Would RAG also be an approach here? My intuition from some small investigation is that RAG is more formal and structured to set up, but more efficient, whereas MCP you can just point an LLM at an MCP server and tell it to figure shit out (and also MCP can be used to _do_ stuff, not just to acquire more information).

    > Would RAG also be an approach here? For sure! If the RAG context includes "Raleigh is the capital city of the U.S. state of North Carolina" somewhere in whatever you feed it, one would hope that you'd get an accurate answer to that question.
