This is great news so far as it goes. But. It amounts to "We're going to take all our resources (apart from the CEO's $7M salary) and plough it into generating plausible bullshit BUT GREAT NEWS you can turn it off. What if we spend all that effort on something people actually want?

It should be genuinely shocking to the Mozilla people how unanimous the 861 (so far) comments are on their recent blog-post "Building AI the Firefox way: Shaping what’s next together" https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/building-ai-the-firefox-way-shaping-what-s-next-together/td-p/109922 It's clear from these responses that virtually no-one wants AI in Firefox. Skim through the comments and you'll see 98–99% are saying: please just stop. Or AT LEAST make it trivially easy to turn off. Will they listen to their users? #Mozilla #Firefox
