Yes. It loads faster, it has integrated quality levels that increase while loading (so a web hoster doesn't need to have 5 different copies of the same image at different qualities), it has better compression and it also supports more features. It can also be lossless. Most importantly, jpeg can be converted to jpeg xl losslessly, and it will have the benefits of jpeg xl.
And even can support RAW data. This will be such a huge benefit to still photographers. Multichannel data also allows scientists and astronomers to have access to a lot more data in an image file (plus alpha for transparency), even animation. Really is next level.
That’s so cool, the integrated quality levels
