Mozilla is developing a built‑in AI assistant for Firefox that will be offered as a third browsing mode alongside Normal and Private tabs. They’re calling it “Window AI.” Details are still scarce.

“It’s safe to say that the people who volunteered to “shape” the initiative want it dead and buried. Of the 52 responses at the time of writing, all rejected the idea and asked Mozilla to stop shoving AI features into Firefox.”

    You want AI in your browser? Just add <your favourite spying ad machine> as a “search engine” option, with a URL like

    https://chatgpt.com/?q=%25s

    , with a shortcut like @ai. You can then ask it anything right there in your search bar.

    Maybe also add one with a URL with some query pre-written like

    https://chatgpt.com/?q=summarize this page for me: %s

    as @ais or something, modern chatbots have the ability to make HTTP requests for you. Then if you want to summarize the page you’re on, you do Ctrl+L Ctrl+C @ais Ctrl+V Enter. There, I solved all your AI needs with 4 shortcuts without literally any client-side code.

        Emissions. Economic problems. Goading several people into suicide.

        Like, if you ship a food item with harmful bacteria in it, it gets recalled. If you have a fatal design flaw in a car, it gets recalled. If your LLM encourages people to separate from their loved ones and kill themselves, nothing fucking happens.
