That s a reallyy sharp observation and you re right it s the core challenge for the web as we know it. For any site that depends on ads hiding the UI is a complete nonstarter. The key is that aura isnt really about creating another reader mode. Its goal is to fundamentally separate a website s functions from its visual presentation paving the way for a truly intent based web.

Think of it this way -instead of an ai trying to find and click the "post comment" button it can just use the "post_comment" capability the site offers through a clean api. While this seems to sidestep the ad model it actually enables a more direct one. A site could specify that a particular action, say a premium translation feature, requires a small payment or an api key. It s a way to get paid for the actual value you provide, not just for ad views.

This could even change how search works like a search engine that indexes what sites can do, not just what they say. Your personal ai could then find and execute the "book a flight" capability from multiple airlines to find the best deal for you all without you ever having to load a webpage. It s a different way of thinking about the web s economy moving from attention to action.
