Mozilla, please. Stop chasing the fads. Get your own values.
People use Firefox to get access to an open web, use a sturdy browser, and not to be tracked. Build in that direction and that direction only.
Nobody from your current user base will recommend Firefox with AI to their friends.

I'm part of their userbase and I wouldn't mind if they were useful features that advance open source AI. Some of the stuff they've done, like llamafile, is useful in that respect.
So far all the _browser_ features I've seen that have shipped were half-baked, buggy, and without a clear user story, and I've disabled them all.
The "AI Window" concept sounds like they're trying to reinvent Open WebUI. That's a very high bar to clear.
