why the fuck would I need an AI in a browser? 0 fucks given for this "feature". firefox is devolving into an edge.
You already have AI in Firefox - local translations for example. Developing local AI aligns perfectly well with Mozilla's goals, but it seems people panic as soon as they see the two letters together.
