After installing a new interim CEO earlier this month, Mozilla, the organization behind the Firefox browser, is making some major changes to its product
With Edge and Chrome already having announced AI integration for things like composing messages, I don’t think Firefox will have much of a mainstream appeal in a few years if it lacks any AI integration at that point. As much as I despise it, things are very much moving in the direction of ChatGPT-everywhere.
Plus, AI also powers things like Mozilla’s offline translation engine, and I believe also the cookie-popup-blocker they’re working on releasing. Even without ChatGPT stuff, AI adds valuable features to the browser.
You should still be able to disable all that stuff if you don’t want it, of course, but I wouldn’t bet against AI with the ways things are developing.
