6 Ways In Which AI Is Transforming The Way WordPress Works
When we talk about WordPress, “content” and “design” are the first words that come to our mind. These two are definitely a deciding factor on whether the website will get views or not. While the quality is ensured by writers, web designers can chalk out the layout of their WordPress website. One may ask, where does artificial intelligence come into picture here? There are a lot of hidden ways in which AI and machine learning are playing crucial roles to fill up many caveats and deliver the best suitable user experience to clients. It is, in fact, interesting to note that WordPress may be one of the few CMS’ to date that has an extensive use of AI-powered plugins.
