I enjoyed drawing today’s post. After a very long time I got to do zines.

This is my attempt at breaking down AI topics in a way it is easy to consume.

What happens when you input a prompt

Claude, or your favorite AI tool:

1. Understands your prompt
2. Thinks and decides what to do
3. Figures out how and from where to gather the relevant information
4. Writes out the answer to you

The Brain

The large language model is its brain.

Think of it as a super intelligent student who has read millions and millions of books.

Hands, eyes and ears

The way humans use eyes to see, ears to hear and hands to grab things, Claude uses MCP servers to connect to the outside world.

Think of it as a student who has read a lot of books, but gets an out-of -syllabus question during the exam. This intelligent student knows where to get the answer from because it has helper tools.

MCP servers become Claude’s hands, eyes and ears and get the answer based on your prompt.
