It can use new information when performing new tasks. It can store experience based on mistakes it made. It can store knowledge in several ways (context, files) and use it when needed.

There is a chance it will forget something, but the same can be said for humans.

The same is for humans, we don't learn on instinct level either.

Yes, it learns

Experience is unobservable

Yes, it can connect with other agents, see Hugging Face incident

You (as a human) don't need to prompt AI. Why do you think it is required?

This is false, unless you think the same for humans

Using JSON as a configuration format is a big mistake. JEP authors could learn a bit from package.json problems. Hope JSON will not be used in anything significant for JDK configuration.

Lines are getting thinner closer to the center. This is not a gradient, but I understand what they meant. AI would use correct word for this.

Agreed, that point in the article is lacking any source. Big part of complexity of the implementation was introducing form attributes and behavior.

Slower than pages with HTML+CSS with tiny bit of JS. Much faster and leaner than current JS SPAs.

Is there a Linux server run on fully open source hardware (what would that mean btw?)? Should we stop using "open source" because almost all computers are not fully open source?

What free internet? You always pay with your time and also usually with lots of tracking and ads.

AI can easily strip any ads for fractions of a cent. AI bots can be tracked - Open Router (or equivalent) will probably don't mind. That is the point of the article - ad and tracker infested webpages will soon be struggling, and some other forms of monetization needs to come.

You forget that bots are often just AI agent working for humans. This will be more and more common. So by blocking bots (which is literally impossible but lets assume otherwise) you are also blocking legitimate customers.

Or you could just read the news and pay automatically in the microtransactional world, without analysing which journalist should be supported.

90% of people are careless and 9.9% are ignorant thinking they are safe.

Microtransactional web is only a risk in an alternative universe which doesn't have spying/tracking/profiling funded by enormous ad industry.

In our world it is a big improvement.

This is exhausting only if you don't value your time (which is the biggest cost when reading the news). People will learn how to make such decisions quickly.

It will not be same price per page. I would gladly pay more than 1$ for a great article.

Also 20$ monthly from 10 users for the whole site might be worse than 0.1$ from 100 users for a single article.

Journalism is losing to "free" "news" sites. Those need to produce cheap, clickbait slop to be able to function.

There is no Spotify for press so the only other good solution is having microtransactions - paying only for articles you want to see, from any provider you want. Currently you must subscribe even if you want to read single article so the very few that buy the press are usually limited to single news source.

You were arguing against such restrictions (nor selling alcohol to minors) in the top post.

So which way it is - parents protect kids on their own or society/state helps somewhat?

Protecting kids does not equal protecting kids from spying, which is what the article is arguing against.
