Comment on Cloudflare adds real-time Markdown rendering for AI agents

Comments

I wonder if this will also result in a better "readability" mode for human readers? You could do the Markdown to HTML conversion in the browser.

I can't help but feel there is a funny pattern going on.

A lot of companies want to embrace AI, agents, etc. so they make their platforms easier to use by AI, implementing whatever the latest craze is.

I imagine we're going to see a lot more APIs open up (agentic finances?), a lot of granular access controls, etc.

Where was all of this when regular users had been asking for it for _years_?

Empowering users in general is a good thing, so, in a way, it's a good thing that OpenClaw and things of this nature are exposing all the issues with access controls and API interactions that many of our services have.

Now we just need a reason for AI agents to need "dark mode" on websites...

Markdown isn't so great for ads or for embedded videos.
