Well, that would fit in with the usual "You don't need AI for that" as Firefox extensions are mostly (90% of them anyways) compatible with Chrome extensions, as both of them are "Web Extensions" as created by Chromium. Also, someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think even Safari uses "Web Extensions" at this point too, so write once, have extensions ready for three platforms. Obviously packaging is different, and they have some idiosyncrasies. But it mostly works alright.

  I extracted the Chrome-only Google Translate extension and loaded it into Firefox and it worked fine with no code changes (I had to add some kind of ID to the manifest though)

Can ChatGPT figure out a way to pay 10$ for a Google Developer account in order to publish extensions for it

  reassigning document.body.innerHTML like that seems like a really bad idea, this should be done using MutationObserver

    Yup. It will recreate all elements. At the very least it will break event listeners which will break most sites. It will probably do about 8 other things that break many sites.
