I’m proud to share that WordPress has signed the Open Weights and American AI Leadership letter.

The future of AI should be shaped by more people, not fewer. Open weights give more builders the freedom to participate, continuing what WordPress has always stood for.

We just wrapped up our final day at WordCamp US. 💙

We ended on a high note with a fireside chat between @ma.tt and @robertjacobi.com, who discussed where the open web goes next.

Plus, Phoenix Mayor @mayorgallego.bsky.social officially named August 19 Phoenix WordCamp Day. How cool is that?

Day three of WordCamp US is in the books. 🌵

Four tracks of talks and workshops, a packed sponsor hall, a super-inspiring keynote from Loyal Pyczynski, and a group photo worth framing. Days like this remind us of what makes @wordpress.org special: the people. 🫶

Day two of WordCamp US is a wrap. 🏜️

The temps in Phoenix were high, but spirits were even higher.

Today, the sessions were in full swing, and we got to hear a keynote from Bo English-Wiczling on how AI is rewiring developer experience and it was so inspiring. Check out our favorite snaps!
