10 WordPress Plugins Using Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning

Do you want to use artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies on your WordPress site? There is a chance that you might already be using one. In this article, we will share some WordPress plugins that are using artificial intelligence and machine learning to offer smarter features for your website.

WordPress plugins using artificial intelligence and machine learning

What is Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning?

If you follow the news, then you must have heard the words artificial intelligence or machine learning being mentioned.

Artificial intelligence and machine learning are computer technologies that are used to offer smarter solutions in computer devices, apps, GPS devices, smart TVs, home assistance devices, and more.

Artificial intelligence gives computer programs ability to make choices without human intelligence.

Machine learning helps the software learn from experiences, data, and user activity to improve artificial intelligence and make better choices.

These technologies allow developers to automate tasks that would normally need human intelligence.

For example, voice recognition, search patterns, translations, image recognition, and more are currently being used by most modern mobile phones and smart devices.

What’s the difference between artificial intelligence and machine learning?

Artificial intelligence can make decisions based on programmed intelligence.

Machine learning further enhances artificial intelligence by self-learning through user activity and collecting information. This makes artificial intelligence smarter and allows it to make more accurate decisions.

What about machines taking over the world?

Many prominent scientists, engineers, and entrepreneurs have expressed their concern over the possible threat to human society from artificial intelligence and self learning machines.

However, it also has great potential to improve lives for billions of people. That’s why even the most prominent AI skeptics encourage its careful usage for the greater good.

What Artificial Intelligence Can do For WordPress Websites?

It can provide smarter and much better user experience to your users. For example, it can improve WordPress search, grammar and style checking, show related content, improve conversions, boost ecommerce sales, and more.

Your website becomes smarter, faster, and more personalized for your users. This saves you time which allows you to do other things to grow your business.

That being said, let’s take a look at the WordPress plugins that are using AI and machine learning.

1. Akismet

Akismet

Akismet is one of the only two plugins that come pre-installed on every WordPress website. It uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to detect spam comments.

Used by millions of website, Akismet has improved over the years to detect almost all spam submitted by bots. It can also detect spam comments manually submitted by actual human users by learning from its mistakes and recognizing patterns across millions of websites.

For more details see our Akismet guide for beginners with instructions on how to set it up on your WordPress website.

3. After The Deadline

After The Deadline

After The Deadline was previously available as a standalone WordPress plugin, but it is now available as part of the JetPack plugin suite. It is an artificial intelligence powered grammar checking tool that analyzes the readability of your content to help you write better.

It supports American, British, and Canadian English with limited grammar support for French and German languages. It is also available as a Google Chrome addon as an alternative to the JetPack module.

4. Google Language Translator

Google Language Translator

If you want your users to easily translate your website content, without actually creating a multilingual WordPress site, then Google Language Translator is the easiest way to do this. It brings Google’s AI and machine learning translation engine to your WordPress website.

Based on the words you choose and the overall context of the data, the plugin will show you insights into how your content may feel to your human readers.

7. Quttera Web Malware Scanner

      Hi Colleen,

      No they are not. Sucuri is a DNS level website application firewall and they also offer a free WordPress scanner plugin. Quttera is a WordPress scanner plugin.

    I’ve developed a new Linux distro. Could I use one of these for a scaled-down demo version for people to try, prior to download?

    Great article, and a great website. Keep up the good work!
