Show Notes
The web is undergoing a fundamental shift from human eyeballs to AI tokens. In this episode, we explore how JavaScript's evolution—from its humble origins to modern component architectures—has inadvertently prepared the web for autonomous agents. We discuss Google's new Web MCP protocol, the critical role of semantic HTML and accessibility trees, and why TypeScript is now essential for machine-readable interfaces. Learn how forward-thinking developers are building "agent-ready" sites and what this means for the future of web economics.
