For those who are curious, I will put the link in the comments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TOON should replace the format <strong>Standard JSON<\/strong>, the one used by virtually all systems to communicate with each other and also by different types of databases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to those who promote it, TOON would make it possible to reduce up to the <strong>65% the consumption of tokens<\/strong>, resulting in energy savings, less data processing, faster (and apparently more accurate) responses, and lower costs for developers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So far so good. The problem is that the format just came out, <strong>is not a standard<\/strong>, <strong>Has not been approved or validated by any authority<\/strong> and, in fact, <strong>AIs don't know him<\/strong>. Forcing them to use it can easily lead to mistakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, <strong>No major tools or companies in the industry<\/strong> (such as OpenAI or Anthropic, for example) officially supports it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So until it becomes a recognized standard and adopted by large companies, <strong>It is neither realistic nor safe to use it in final products<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In short: interesting yes, but calm with enthusiasm. Let's see how the situation develops, but no, <strong>is not yet a revolution<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>My 2 cents.<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"tag-news-veloce":[],"class_list":["post-55158","news-veloce","type-news-veloce","status-publish","hentry"],"meta_box":{"data_pubblicazione_sui_social":"1762800405","pubblicato_sui_social":"true","immagine_generata":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/edoardoguzzi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news-veloce\/55158","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/edoardoguzzi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news-veloce"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/edoardoguzzi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news-veloce"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/edoardoguzzi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news-veloce\/55158\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":55159,"href":"https:\/\/edoardoguzzi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news-veloce\/55158\/revisions\/55159"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/edoardoguzzi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=55158"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"tag-news-veloce","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/edoardoguzzi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tag-news-veloce?post=55158"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
