Jim Nielsen channels some comments from Alex Russell to the effect that it makes sense to call built-in browser functions rather than to write the same function in Javascript. For example, you could write an audio player in Javascript, or just call the browser's built-in 'audio' tag and have it build the player for you. It makes sense, and it means you're keeping up with browser improvements rather than lagging behind them. I'm wondering, though, how far this goes, as browsers are building more and more AI into their functionality.
