Firefox AI

AI is creeping into my beloved Firefox: Introducing AI, the Firefox way: A look at what we’re working on and how you can help shape it.

Right at the bottom of the announcement is a link to take part in “shaping” how Mozilla integrates AI into Firefox. The feedback received so far is overwhelmingly negative. All that feedback is brilliant, and my pick of the bunch is this from user Holdenweb:

It seems you’ve already decided to add the ai feature. This makes the community engagement too late - had you consulted earlier you might have realised the feature is unwanted. Since I don’t want or need such features, a single switch that allows me to turn all ai interactions off (or on) is top of my wish list.

It is now time to find an alternative to Firefox, I think. In fact, I think that moment has passed a long time ago.
