In this clip from our livestream, Jonathan Bossenger, Developer Advocate at Automattic, outlines the four building blocks the WordPress Core AI team has put in place to make WordPress AI-ready.

The Abilities API, MCP adapter, AI client, and AI experiments plugin each serve a specific role, covering everything from connecting external AI agents to running LLMs inside WordPress itself. Rather than chasing trends, the team focused on the fundamentals: how WordPress integrates with external services, and how to build on that in a user-driven way.

In this clip from our livestream, Vova Feldman, Founder and CEO at Freemius, outlines how AI is forcing a rethink of the traditional WordPress plugin pricing model.

Lifetime licenses gave way to annual subscriptions. Now, AI components are being layered on top of everything, and because LLMs carry real ongoing costs, flat-fee pricing no longer works. Expect token top-ups and consumption-based billing to become the new normal across WordPress products.

In this clip from our livestream, Vova Feldman, Founder and CEO at Freemius, explains why the human factor behind a business matters more as AI becomes more widespread.

Vova shares that some competing platforms have dropped human support entirely, and the contrast is stark. Customers moving from faceless AI support to a direct call with a founder are genuinely surprised. That reaction alone shows how much trust is built simply by having a real person available.

In this clip from our livestream, Vova Feldman, Founder and CEO at Freemius, breaks down how far a single founder can realistically scale using AI today.

A strong developer who also knows how to leverage AI tools may no longer need a team at all, especially when building from scratch. Pair that with solid business skills, and Vova argues that for a small software business, that combination should be enough to compete.

AI in WordPress isn't just a feature you toggle on. It's being built into Core as a deliberate, user-controlled foundation, and it changes a lot about how we build and secure WordPress sites.

In this episode, we sit down with Jonathan Bossenger, Developer Advocate at Automattic, to walk through exactly how it works. We cover the new Abilities API, the Connectors page, the AI plugin, and what the WordPress Core team is doing to ensure site owners remain in control of how AI is used on their sites.

We also get into the security side: connecting your site to an AI provider makes your API keys a high-value target. Jonathan shares straightforward advice on limiting access, choosing a good host, and making sure you don't wake up to a nasty surprise in your billing dashboard.

And for developers who've been wondering whether to start building with AI, Jonathan shares how he got started with just one hour a week, and why the future of development is less about writing code and more about building the right environment around it.

In this clip from our livestream, Vova Feldman, Founder and CEO at Freemius, explains why founders at the start of their journey are actually in the best position to take advantage of AI right now.

Without existing customers or established processes to protect, early-stage builders can freely experiment with automations and new workflows. Established companies face the harder challenge: they're already stretched, and replacing proven processes mid-operation is a different problem entirely.

In this clip from our livestream, Vova Feldman, Founder and CEO at Freemius, describes how AI is opening up product building to people with no software background at all.

Non-developers are now shipping real apps, from household tools to personal projects, simply by prompting AI builders like Lovable. The barrier to entry is near zero, which is fuelling a wave of micro-entrepreneurs. The flip side: it's just as easy to copy what someone else built, so the market is filling up fast with near-identical products.

In this clip from our livestream, Mat Rollings, Application Security Professional, makes the case for why cross-site scripting is routinely underestimated, and why that's a serious mistake.

SQL injection looks scarier in a demo because you can see data pulled from a database. But XSS lets an attacker do anything the victim user can do on a site. The pop-up is just proof of concept. The real payload can be far worse.
