Websites should become usable by AI agents, not only humans; agents need to understand structure, forms, and possible actions.

If you have a website, you need to make sure that not just humans, but also AI agents are able to use that website. This is an initiative that Google has been taking the lead on. And this week at Google IO, we saw their latest push in this direction. So I'll talk about two new things you're going to have to start thinking about when you're designing your...

If you have a website, you need to make sure that not just humans, but also AI agents are able to use that website. This is an initiative that Google has been taking the lead on. And this week at Google IO, we saw their latest push in this direction. So I'll talk about two new things you're going to have to start thinking about when you're designing your website: L O M S T X T and WebMCP. Neither of these things are new, but up until recently, they haven't really mattered, and it looks like they're going to star...
ide the Chrome browser Google IO, we learned that it will probably be widespread pretty soon. Now there's two ways that WebMCP can be set up on your website. If you have any HTML forms on your website, you can just add a few extra tags. Give the AI confidence in what each field does and what the form itself does. I assume these new tags will just become a standard part of HTML forms, but you'll have to go back and update any existing forms. The second version is a bit more complex. If you have any interactive Ja...
It's clear that AI is quickly changing the way we work, even if we can't see exactly how that will happen in the next few years. But looking at the advancements we've seen in just the last two months, I think it's finally starting to take shape. So I'd like to look back on how knowledge work has evolved so far and then predict what's coming next. Everyone likes a good speculation video. The story of how computers have evolved has been a story of abstraction. Machine code was abstracted away by human readable cod...
urself, it just makes way more sense to have the AI do this research for you. That's why website visits are way down right now. And of course, the better the models get, the less sense it'll make. The same thing has also already happened with tools like Photoshop or Powerpoint. AI is just better than 99% of us at this kind of work now. Unless you're doing something very specific, it just doesn't make sense to use these tools yourself anymore. And again, the better the models get, the less sense it'll make. So my...
ood chance of using your competitor website instead. Because in this future, I'm imagining, unless the human is really motivated, they're not going to the website themselves.
