As I’ve mentioned in other threads, I don’t believe the Chrome team didn’t know Apple was going to implement JPEG XL.
There’s lots of communication between the Chrome and WebKit teams.
It’s going to take more than just Apple shipping JPEG XL to perhaps change Google’s point of view; JPEG XL needs to be seen as a game changer that moves the needle.
