After installing a new interim CEO earlier this month, Mozilla, the organization behind the Firefox browser, is making some major changes to its product
It’s not just about AI in Firefox, but rather making an open-sourced AI in general. The world is absolutely heading towards AI integrations being normal; personally I’m glad we’ve got Mozilla working on an AI rather than being limited to closed-source AIs made by for-profit companies.
This is basically how I see it. Whether we like it or not, its happening. Claiming it won’t at this point is just as silly as all the people who claimed the internet was just a fad.
Better to have options, long as it’s optional I don’t have many issues with it.
Now if it’s rammed down our throats, that’s an entirely different story.
AI in Firefox? Damn, guess it’s time to use a fork

Yeah. I want to have the option to turn off the ai as much as i want the option to go offline.
Hire MBA CEO’s instead of engineers, get enshittification.
Beancounters gonna beancount
Engineering is a cost center, they don’t make money!
