“I’m really excited for the Abilities API – and not just because I helped write it. It’ll take a while for the effects to trickle down, but it just got a whole lot easier to develop, integrate, and maintain whatever bespoke site functionality your enterprise needs.”
– David Levine
“I am very excited about WordPress 6.9 as its a major leap by a humongous open source software towards ease of AI implementation, and this will be a turning point in CMS + AI.”
– Hilay Trivedi
“This marks my eighth consecutive contribution to a major WordPress release, which further strengthens my commitment to contributing to open-source projects in my free time. The introduction of Collaborative Notes, enabling editors to comment directly on posts within the admin for streamlined feedback. The addition of the AI-related MCP Adapter and PHP AI client, which represents a significant step forward in bringing advanced AI capabilities into the WordPress ecosystem.”
– Hit Bhalodia
