Speed, Safety, and Smarter Journeys: What Drupal AI 1.5 Means for Digital Marketing Leaders

By pdjohnson on

Author: Will Huggins

In enterprise digital experience, the conversation around generative AI has shifted dramatically. Digital leaders are no longer asking whether AI can write a paragraph or spin up a page. They are asking: 

  • Can our AI deliver seamless customer journeys?
  • Can it scale without diluting our brand voice?
  • Will our IT and compliance teams actually approve it?

The release of Drupal AI 1.5 directly answers those questions.

Drupal AI after the DriesNote Rotterdam: what you can use today and what comes next

By pdjohnson on

At DrupalCon Rotterdam on September 29, 2026, Dries Buytaert used his keynote to show how far Drupal has come and who it can reach next. Dries framed the keynote around three pillars that bring Drupal's strengths to more people: multilingual (reach people in more languages), JavaScript and headless (bring more developers and applications to Drupal), and AI (give people new ways to work with Drupal).

Introducing the Drupal AI Demo

Author: Christoph Breidert, Product Lead, Drupal AI

Earlier this year, the Drupal AI Initiative set itself a clear goal: at DrupalCon Rotterdam, show one Drupal site where AI search, content review, chat-driven editing, and AI translation all work together on real content. Today we are delivering on that promise. The Drupal AI Demo is live, and Dries revealed it in the Driesnote.

Proof, not promises. Watch the six demos from the DriesNote Rotterdam

By ryan_witcombe on

The DriesNote at DrupalCon Rotterdam made one argument above all: Drupal is light-years ahead of its reputation. The strongest evidence was on screen. These six demos show a platform that speaks more languages, welcomes JavaScript developers as first-class citizens, and treats AI assistants as another interface to Drupal, with governance built in.

Everything here is open source and available today. Here are the demos, with the story behind each one.

Drupal CMS 2.2: Multilingual, out of the box

By pameeela on

Drupal CMS 2.2.0 is out, and this release is all about multilingual. Setting up a site to publish in multiple languages has always been possible in Drupal, but it was not easy. With 2.2, we've tackled the biggest pain points from the installer through to translating your Canvas pages.

Finding your language in the installer

The first thing you'll notice is the language selector in the installer. Instead of scrolling through a long select list, you can now start typing and search for your language.
