The JK flip-flop is essentially an improved SR flip-flop, so the key difference lies in how each treats the "both inputs 1" condition.
SR flip-flop: it has a Set input S and a Reset input R. For S = 0, R = 0 it holds (no change); S = 1, R = 0 sets ; S = 0, R = 1 resets ; but S = 1, R = 1 is forbidden/invalid because both outputs try to go the same way and the resulting state is indeterminate (race). …
