Oaisys 2025: A First‑Hand Look at AI and Drupal in Action

In his blog post, "Oaisys 2025, a revelation in AI and Drupal," Marcus Johansson recounts his experience attending the first-ever Oaisys AI Practitioners conference in Pune, India. Invited alongside James Abrahams to speak and lead the contribution day, Johansson describes the event as both welcoming and inspiring.

Organised by QED42, the conference brought together Drupal professionals, AI enthusiasts, and contributors eager to explore how artificial intelligence is shaping the Drupal ecosystem. From early conversations with local leaders to sessions on large language models, the event exceeded expectations and highlighted the strength of the global Drupal community.

A major highlight was meeting prominent contributors to the Drupal AI module, including Prabhavathi Vanipenta, Anjali Prasannan, and Akhil Babu, whose combined work has driven hundreds of improvements to the project. Johansson also notes the exceptional energy in the contribution room, where attendees rapidly prototyped new ideas and opened fresh issues, such as the Browser AI CKEditor project, directly during the event. The post closes with gratitude to the organisers and contributors, underscoring Oaisys 2025 as a powerful example of how community-driven collaboration is accelerating AI innovation in Drupal.
