AFIK no
nearly all AI features only do any compute if you explicitly ask them to do stuff
the only exception is that when you create a tab group (and only then!) it will auto recommend a name. And while I don't find a very useful for me (and I use tab groups a ton) I also have observed that non technical users get confused with unnamed tab groups and the UI around them so I really understand why they do that. Also while it's "technically" a LLM it's tiny and fast to run and could also have been implemented with just embeddings at a slightly loss of quality (and again only runs if you create a tab group and not at any other time and not if you computer has less then 3GiB of RAM etc. etc.(yes FF disables AI features on very low RAM devices AFIK))
Put people hear AI think LLM get angry and stop thinking.
Or considering that maybe a non negligible amount of people outside of their bubble want exactly that and might leave your browser if you don't supply that.
