Not really, JSON is a simpler format with better parsing built-in for most languages. It is easier to use for programmers and performs better across the network.

This is as true today as it was true 7-years ago when I wrote this article: https://mkaz.com/2007/03/02/goodbye-xml-hello-json/

And YAML is a better JSON with comments and no need to balance braces.
