Drupal AI Initiative: introducing Inside AI and Outside AI

A year ago, we launched the Drupal AI Initiative with a published strategy and a bet that AI would matter enormously to Drupal's future. Today the initiative spans 32 organizations and more than 50 contributors, shipping against a public 2026 roadmap.

As the work has grown, it's become clear that our AI strategy needs to cover two distinct areas. While innovation and product development remain core goals across everything we do, we are organizing our day-to-day execution into two workstreams: Inside AI, led by Christoph Breidert, and Outside AI, a new stream led by Scott Falconer.

Drupal 12 is coming later this year. As with previous major releases, the contributed ecosystem will require updating for breaking changes . Thousands of modules and themes will need their deprecated API uses updated before they are ready. Doing that by hand, across all of contrib, would cost the community an enormous number of hours.

The Stable Triangle: Why AI is the Ultimate Stress Test for Your Business

This blog post summarizes the key insights from the CX Decoded podcast episode featuring Dries Buytaert, the founder of Drupal and Executive Chairman of Acquia.

The Two Speeds of the Agentic Web: Pragmatism and Community-driven Acceleration
