Mozilla right now.

@kptn_offensichtlich @ocramius @davidrevoy they could spin off a Mozilla Research Lab if they've got this much AI scamcoin to burn, let the browser be a browser, make extensions for everything else.
@patterfloof @kptn_offensichtlich @davidrevoy agreed: FF users know when to use extensions

@davidrevoy oh no Avian Intelligence

You sir are the wisest of illustrators..... Insta-meme! -
@lazy Plenty of good ML research going on at Unis. LLMs and Stable Diffusion are just a microscopic slice of ML and there is a lot of cool stuff you can do with the part that do not require you to steal all intellectual property in the world.
@j_bertolotti @lazy I totally agree, and although I often take shortcuts for the sake of efficient communication, my position on LLMs is nuanced.
What worries me the most is that 'AI browsers' have a larger scope by definition. If Firefox wants to join that group, it would also mean getting a built-in assistant that can browse the web automatically, fill in forms and purchase items on the user's behalf.
I know users will be able to turn it off, but I see it as a source of security breach.

@davidrevoy this is so sad
-
@davidrevoy you can check web browsers privacy at https://privacytests.org/ @privacytests
but there is nothing yet about AI.@didier @davidrevoy @privacytests I wish Brave wasn't run by compete spanners

@kptn_offensichtlich @ocramius @davidrevoy and there"s a default home screen they can put links on for "recommended" extensions

@davidrevoy oh no, poor fox
️ great work as always, though. Unfortunately also very accurate, but won't get me to move to anything Chrome based, since imho a Browser engine monopoly would be even worse.

People call LLMs "stochastic parrots" because all they really do is somewhat-randomly repeat what's in their training data in accordance with what you tell them. Definitely unfortunate in your case though.

@cybird hehe, nice PP, and no offense : it's a character from my recent weekly webcomics, check my TL to read them

@davidrevoy I have never seen a more true comic filled with such comedic sadness.

I should have told myself to try a different sona a few years ago, lol.

@davidrevoy@framapiaf.org @j_bertolotti@mathstodon.xyz @lazy@fedi.at Yes indeed- so why not move Yes and so 'curl' and 'ffmpeg' both need interactive prompting control! (am being sarcastic but yes the equivalent of this will happen) #agenticcurl

@FoxbrushTailwag Same here, and it makes it even more frustrating. I'm still using Firefox after a couple of months of using LibreWolf, which was educational because I could understand many of Firefox's privacy and options that LibreWolf activates by default.

@davidrevoy sadly accurate.
-
@Linux @davidrevoy Vivaldi is Chrome in disguise. Meanwhile, @Waterfox says NO to AI and it's not a Chrome based browser.
@Linux @salva_pl @Waterfox @davidrevoy You need more @zenbrowser in your life
-
@davidrevoy At some point, I might as well switch to Librewolf and hope the Gecko engine itself doesn't become the next Chromium.
