Autotab – Boring AI Agents for real world tasks
fwiw, the Selenium project is now old enough to go to college (19 years this month!); it's not ready to retire just yet. (Side-note: Google Chrome is 15 years old. Age is just a number.) Selenium is still learning from other projects and implementing some new things. Specifically, check out the WebDriver BiDi project, adding a bidirectional protocol which was the core of what made Playwright and Puppeteer faster. Also, Selenium devs are working with the W3C to make this work for everyone.

Are any web scrapers able to handle browser updates without requiring recompilation?
Is this new WebDriver BiDi available in any of these packages, and does it actually help with this?

WebContainers are now supported in Firefox on desktop and Android
I guess I didn't understand what exactly you were talking about when talking about "this new standard": WebDriver BiDi or WebContainers.
WebDriver BiDi is on the standards track, that's true: https://w3c.github.io/webdriver-bidi/

Using BiDirectional Protocol support in Selenium 4 to stream console logs and network requests
One of the new features in the recently released Selenium 4 is support for new event-driven listeners which will be powered by the currently-in-draft BiDirectional (or BiDi) protocol (though the current Selenium implementation has some limitations, which we'll discuss later). In this article we'll discuss some of these new capabilities and demonstrate how to use them in Scala to inspect console logs and network requests made from the browser.

A Look at End-to-end Testing in Nightwatch v2.0
The new BiDirectional WebDriver Protocol is by far one of the most exciting recent developments in the Selenium project and it likely to deliver improvements in speed and stability that far outweigh expectations. As soon as it is available, it will become part of Nightwatch as well. You can follow the development on the Selenium website.

is playwright the future of automation
There's also the webdriver-bidi spec being worked on by browser vendors that may provide a less hacky, more browser native CDP-style approach to this.
