On November 30, 2022, OpenAI’s ChatGPT was launched, the first major generative artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot. It literally blew our minds from the very first moment despite its hallucinations and AI generated images of people with 6 fingers. A lot has happened since then, AI has improved greatly and it has also begun to be perfectly integrated into most CMS.

Claude Mythos is no hype: it finds disturbing numbers of vulnerabilities
Anthropic’s Glasswing project is proving to be a huge success. This project has made its cybersecurity technology Claude Mythos available on a preliminary basis to some companies and the result is that 10,000 high or critical severity vulnerabilities have already been detected. This makes it clear that the power of Claude Mythos was not hot air, as it is indeed finding a large number of security holes, faster and better than humans.

WordPress 7.0 is now available and can be downloaded for free. Perhaps the most important part of this update is that it lays the groundwork for artificial intelligence (AI) plugins to connect with whichever AI each person sees fit to contract.

GfK DAM, the measurement provider recommended by the industry, invited a group of journalists to review the impact of generative AI and chatbots in Spain using data from its digital measurement.

Open source CMSs have been under a lot of pressure lately, mainly due to artificial intelligence (AI). For this reason, they are undertaking a series of major changes so they do not miss the AI wave and can continue to be leading software in the future.Condé Nast works as if Google traffic did not exist and this is the way
Google arrived with very good intentions, don’t be evil and all the rest and we swallowed it. It was a matter of going public and all those intentions dissolved like a sugar cube. Since then, we have lived at the mercy of Core Updates like someone watching a roller coaster, hoping that Google will finally do its job properly and genuinely prioritize quality. In the end, this never happens.

We have received the CMS market data for April 2026, according to data from the W3Techs website, which indicates that these are not good times for WordPress. It remains the undisputed king, far ahead of the rest, but the trend is increasingly negative and this month it is becoming more pronounced, as can be seen in the following table.
(more…)AI Overviews are unbearable
I have spent some time denouncing Google’s excesses in Google Search, specifically those created with AI Overviews, which are already causing so many layoffs and media outlet closures all over the world. It is obvious to everyone that Google is a de facto monopoly that finally has a decent competitor (OpenAI and Anthropic afterwards) and perhaps that is why it is acting in a rather reprehensible way. In this context, I sometimes come across some AI Overviews that are quite outrageous.

(more…)Can AI do away with CMSs?
Artificial intelligence (AI), despite how mind blowing it is among other drawbacks, is sweeping through everything. At CMS MAG, we have already spoken at length about its implications and how it is going to transform content management systems (CMSs) into something entirely new and surely more powerful, usable and friendly for people with little knowledge.
