WORDPRESS HAS FORMED AN AI TEAM
WordPress announced
[https://wordpress.org/news/2025/05/announcing-the-formation-of-the-wordpress-ai-team/]
on Tuesday that it has formed an AI team to steward the development of AI
products among its developer community.
The team includes James LePage (leader of AI at Automattic, WordPress’ parent
company), Felix Arntz and Pascal Birchler from Google, and Jeff Paul (Director
of Open Source at web design firm 10up).
As one of the most dominant platforms for building websites, WordPress has
already seen developers within its open source community experiment with AI
tools. The creation of a formalized team signals that WordPress wants to take a
more active role in organizing and moderating AI efforts among developers.
“A unified team stewards AI development thoughtfully, avoids fragmentation, and
ensures alignment with the long-term goals of WordPress,” WordPress executive
director Mary Hubbard wrote in a blog post
[https://wordpress.org/news/2025/05/announcing-the-formation-of-the-wordpress-ai-team/].
Currently, WordPress developers have published 660 different AI plug-ins
[https://wordpress.com/plugins/browse/ai]. The most popular plug-ins include
AI-powered template builders, AI SEO optimization tools, and chatbots.
