If you're writing a program, it's super easy to load JSON in most
languages into native objects. But it's not super easy to load XML.
JSON is quick and dirty, load-and-use, easy for a developer. But
XML takes planning and thinking.
JSON is great for ad-hoc formats designed by a developer for one
particular use. JSON is program-centric, whereas XML is document-
centric. JSON is primarily for data that appears, is transmitted, and
vanishes in a fleeting moment. XML is primarily for data that endures.

Excellent! Spot-on.
