· Föderation EN Do 09.01.2025 16:46:38 @howisyourdog I'm not a Firefox user so I haven't really dug into the latest in being upset with Firefox making an AI plugin, but it seemed like they were making an LLM to summarize pages. These have been known to get things very wrong. I don’t know if it's on-device or if it uses ChatGPT. |
Föderation EN Do 09.01.2025 16:49:01 @bedast oooh, I hadn't heard about it summarising pages, that's useful to know. |
Föderation EN Do 09.01.2025 16:53:22 @howisyourdog It’s a plugin/addon so opt-in for now. So there’s at least that. But Mozilla has a history of eventually forcing stuff on users. |
Föderation EN Do 09.01.2025 17:16:34 @bedast I was thinking of this I believe, and I'm not sure if it is ML/AI |
Föderation EN Fr 10.01.2025 13:20:04 Firefox also has a local AI translation thingy that is different from the plug-in being talked about here. |

Föderation FR Do 09.01.2025 23:00:47 @bedast @howisyourdog all browsers end up forcing stuff on users anyway. Chrome is the leader in forcing stupid things though, especially regarding privacy infringement. |
Föderation EN Fr 10.01.2025 12:39:27 @bedast @howisyourdog It's off device. They say it is privacy preserving, but that's fundamentally questionable when you are sending stuff off device and can always change at any point. It's basically a "trust us, we won't be evil" statement and a lot of people are not willing to trust in that any longer given how they've behaved of late. |
