Cloudflare, the cloud provider that connects millions of sites to the internet, wants to “fix” another digital giant: WordPress. It announced a new open-source system, called EmDash, that’s supposed to address the “core problems that WordPress cannot solve” — and they want to do it by allowing AI agents to take control of your website.

For many businesses their website is a vital shopfront, so losing 140 million visits in a single year would be a big problem. That's what happened to HubSpot, and the cause was AI. For companies like HubSpot there are several causes for the drop in traffic.

Google is beginning to replace news headlines in its search results with ones that are AI-generated. After doing something similar in its Google Discover news feed, it’s starting to mess with headlines in the traditional “10 blue links,” too. We’ve found multiple examples where Google replaced headlines we wrote with ones we did not, sometimes changing their meaning in the process.

These let users generate images and content designed to align with your brand or aesthetic – for example, using a consistent character design or set of icons.

Australian collaborationware company Atlassian has announced it will shed ten percent of staff – around 1,600 people. “It would be disingenuous to pretend AI doesn’t change the mix of skills we need or the number of roles required in certain areas. It does,” wrote CEO Mike Cannon-Brookes. “This is primarily about adaptation. We are reshaping our skill mix and changing how we work to build for the future.”
