      Instead of being a dick about it, why don’t you show what they’re doing and why you don’t like it, so we can all be educated and/or have a conversation about it, so everyone can decide for themselves if it’s a problem for them?

      Probably because they knew it’d devolve into stupid comments like yours. Honestly what were you trying to achieve by just baselessly calling someone a Mozilla shill?

      But for anybody curious, the “AI” that Mozilla will be implementing is entirely optional, trained on open source datasets that have been ethically sourced, works entirely offline, is run locally, and doesn’t send your personal info to Mozilla.

      It will be used for things like better offline translation, finding alternate sources for articles if you want to find them, spotting fake reviews, as well as accessibility features like a better screen reader and image descriptions for images without a manually added description tag.

      Personally my issues with AI are pretty much entirely related to stealing training data, and using AI as an excuse to push more ads and scrape more userdata. That’s not the case here, and this should not be treated like Google/MS’s AI features.
