Yet another protocol promising to change everything

When IBM Research announced the Agent Communication Protocol (ACP) as part of the BeeAI project, my first reaction was the usual one: “Oh, just another universal protocol”. With nearly 30 years in this field, I’ve seen too many “definitive standards” that ended up forgotten.

But there’s something different about ACP that made me pay attention: it doesn’t promise to solve all the world’s problems. It simply focuses on one very specific thing: making AI agents from different frameworks talk to each other. And it does it in a way that really makes sense.
