The future of information architecture is splitting into two distinct webs:
- The Human Web: Relies on User Interfaces (UI), visual layouts, and hierarchical folder structures (e.g., Notion, Apple Notes). It is optimized for human reading and navigation.
- The Agent Web: Relies on APIs, structured data, and semantic embeddings. It is optimized for machine readability and agentic retrieval.
To future-proof knowledge, one must build for the Agent Web, ensuring data is discoverable and usable by AI agents through structured formats.
