AI can push your Stream Deck buttons for you
Summary
Elgato's Stream Deck 7.4 software update now supports MCP (Model Context Protocol, a standard that lets AI assistants interact with software tools), allowing AI chatbots like Claude and ChatGPT to automatically activate Stream Deck buttons instead of requiring manual button presses. Users can now request actions through voice or text, and the AI will trigger the corresponding Stream Deck functions.
