I'm mostly thinking of making Google the default search engine and not doing much of anything to stop its data-gathering out of the box (although I will give them credit for the Tracking Protection feature in private windows and not taking active steps to prevent people from protecting their privacy, what the hell Google), integrating the famously-invasive Pocket into the browser with no obvious way to remove it, and creating a new paid-exclusive AI help chatbot for web deevelopers that's just ChatGPT in a trenchcoat
Admittedly Mozilla's track record is light years better than any of the other software companies out there, and I won't begrudge them taking Google money in order to survive, but...
i dont fucking want ANY program "summarizing" for me. if i want to know what it says ill read the damn thing like an adult. this ""ai"" cannot be trusted because its nothing more than a big math equation. its cool tech but has no real intelligence.
that still doesnt mean it has any real intelligence. it doesnt understand any of what its saying, only that word a goes next to word b pretty often.
