Cool it with AI hate? Love Firefox, I don't understand slapping "AI" on a browser.

- Havoc 2y agoJust because you don’t want the feature doesn’t mean other don’t. I certainly would - assuming the implementation is privacy friendly
- account42 2y agoOk, then install an extension for it? FF doesn't even come with ad-blocking yet which is useful to a lot more people.
- Havoc 2y ago>Ok, then install an extension for it? Or build it in and people who don't want to use it don't? Your stance of FF should only have the features I personally want and the features others want should be in extensions is frankly laughable
- Ekaros 2y agoTo me it is just usual Firefox behaviour chasing some trend or other. Adding features for sake of adding features. I wonder what is the over-under when this feature will be deprecated...
- squigz 2y agoDo you, honestly, not see the benefits of LLMs, particularly in a browser?
- shrimp_emoji 2y agoDo you, honestly, not see the benefits of blockchain, particularly in a browser?
- JohnFen 2y agoI honestly don't. I do understand that others see benefits in it, but I don't really understand why.
- squigz 2y agoWhat benefits do you think others see in it, and why do you think they're not benefits?
- JohnFen 2y agoI'm not certain what benefits others actually get, but what I hear most often is translation and summaries. I need translation rarely enough that it doesn't matter if the browser does it or not, and I have no interest at all in summaries of websites.
- techjamie 2y agoIf this was them bringing over window.ai from Chrome I'd say it would be good. I love the offline translation they added, and wouldn't mind something similar for LLM. But having a separate panel that's just basically chatgpt & co isn't impressive. I'd much prefer an offline capable, leaner LLM that lets web devs do cool stuff.
