Of course not. Stephen Thaler is nutty and his meritless lawsuits are just a nonsense distraction at this point.

And their whole purpose in return is to try to guess exactly what you want to hear from them.

AI is so human!

That part's not good. I was addressing the "They fired 60 staff and are adding AI to their flagship program to earn more money." Part.

That was an empty answer.

I assume there'll be some niche little fork for the die-hards for whom clicking a button in the settings to turn off the features they don't like isn't enough.

Have you read any of the other comments in this thread? Large numbers of people are gleefully dumping all over Mozilla, it's the few who are trying to go against that narrative that are getting downvotes.

You enjoy your angry mob. I'll enjoy having AI tools in my browser.

And they still will. I'm sure most people haven't heard of the projects they're getting rid of (that's why they're getting rid of them) and the anti-AI circlejerk is going to melt away once it rolls out and people are surprised to learn it's actually a really useful technology.

It's only a buzzword to people who've already decided it's a buzzword and are refusing to consider its actual good uses, of which there are plenty.

Being part of angry mobs is fun.

Which browser is not going to have AI?

Tell me this is a good thing.

Ok. Mozilla was spreading itself too thin, spending resources trying to compete with multiple products against established brands that were already way ahead of them. They needed to focus down onto their core product rather than frivolously cast about.

And AI is the technology of the future, despite all the whinging and griping by commenters on the subject. It's being incorporated into the other major browsers, it's a must-have if Firefox is to remain relevant. I'm sure you'll be able to turn it off in the settings if you don't want it and if you're really concerned about getting AI cooties there'll be niche forks that are compiled without it.

Indeed. She's not really your girlfriend unless you own her completely and can control everything she thinks.

There's also GPT4All that I'm aware of.

Or, you know, clicking a button in the settings to turn it off.
