This is what they won't tell you, you'll only hear fearmongering
I don't want it to have an off switch I want it to have an on switch. Computer programmers still don't understand consent.
>>107635004Oh they understand it, they're breaking it intentionally because of $$$.AI is opt-out because they prey on the 80% who won't bother to turn it off.Cookies are opt-out because they prey on the 80% who won't bother to turn them off.Telemetry is opt-out because they prey on the 80% who won't bother to turn it off.
>>107634961we know that and i know because nigger or reddit are spam posting how they need AI in firefoxWhat were they supposed to do, just say fuck no we wont do it?
>>107635034problem is that it wont stay this wayin few months it will be on again even if you turned it off and it will be more hidden to turn it offthen they will be really fucking hard to turn it offand in the end it wont work if not on
>>107634961>guys, you totally will be able to turn it off with a button, pinkie swear>two months later after no one uses>you wanna turn it off? It's super easy in about:config>two more months later>oops, we removed the about:config option, sorry chud
>>107635162is there a way to stop firefox from autoupdating?
>>107635162When has Firefox done this in the past? Do you have any actual reason to believe this will happen?
>>107634961>devs only test with AI enabled, AI disabled becomes buggy>devs spend all their time on new AI features and never work on improving the core browserit doesn't matter that you can turn it off. the fact is they'll spend all their time on AI features and stop working on the browser for a few years until the AI fad passes. then you'll be stuck with a bunch of shitty AI code shoveled into your browser when firefox inevitably shifts focus to whatever the new fad is.
>>107635199well when was last time Firefox added AI to their browser?
Firefox already has AI in itself, go to about:config and search for "browser.ml".It's hilarious though, nobody bats an eye when others do it, but when Firefox does it it's the end of the world, btw Firefox is 90% owned by Google, no browser is sacred, you're all retarded.
>>107635117Opt-out always becomes permanent eventually.
>>107634961I don't think anybody here is retarded enough to believe there won't be forks of this garbage without the AI pozz.
>>107635199compact density
>>107635034How will they make money from a locally run LLM?
>>107635286I must've done this cause I use nightly and have never seen any AI shit in it. Feels good man.
>>107634961too late already moved to icecat
>>107634961Don't care, they removed the clause on selling my data. Just like when Google did it long ago. I see the writing on the wall.
>>107634961>Screenshot of AI summarizing a story about AII hate this timeline
>>107635199native widgets like scrollbars for "muh security"
It really is over. The rust trannies won.
why do millennials pretend mozilla is still relevant
