    13 AI Experiments is a plugin for testing and developing AI-powered experiments for WordPress. This plugin provides a framework for building, testing, and deploying experimental AI capabilities.
     13The WordPress AI Experiments plugin brings experimental AI-powered features directly into your WordPress admin and editing experience.
     14
     15**What's Inside:**
     16
     17This plugin is built on the [AI Building Blocks for WordPress](https://make.wordpress.org/ai/2025/07/17/ai-building-blocks) initiative, combining the WP AI Client SDK, Abilities API, and MCP Adapter into a unified experience. It serves as both a practical tool for content creators and a reference implementation for developers.
