100-word summary
WordPress has launched an opt-in AI assistant built into its site editor and media library that edits text, translates content, adjusts fonts and layouts, and generates or edits images using Google's Nano Banana models. Marketers and designers can now update text, design, and visuals with a single natural-language prompt instead of manual edits across blocks and media assets. To start, enable AI tools in Site Settings, use the new Generate Image option in the Media Library, or type @ai in block notes for instant content suggestions. Sites built via WordPress' AI website builder have the assistant enabled by default, helping teams accelerate Q2 site management and campaign asset production.
