JavaScript
The programming language that runs in every web browser.
JavaScript is the language that makes web pages interactive, running inside your browser to handle everything from buttons to live updates. Nearly every website uses it.
It appears in AI news because a lot of AI is delivered through the web, and AI coding tools are frequently asked to write or fix JavaScript. You do not need to know it to use AI, but it explains why it turns up so often.
