@davidrevoy qu'est ce qu'il se passe ?
@DessiniFab
Le nouveau pdg de Mozilla a annoncé sa feuille de route pour l'entreprise qui est de se focaliser sur l'ia. -
@davidrevoy For a second I thought Avian Intelligence had escaped confinement
@neilk @davidrevoy If that happens it would probably become a little blue whale...

AI slop is why I dumped firefox for DuckDuckGo.

@Zekovski @Johns_priv @OndrejZizka Hi, which one is that?
Thanks in advance.

@Linux
Also each of the 3 major Firefox forks/mods
@davidrevoy -
@TheEffekt @davidrevoy Dev Edition is, at the moment, just Firefox Nightly (although it may recive dev-focused updates earlier when those are available). @firefoxwebdevs has a Q&A style thread started with clarifying how there is going to be a “kill switch” — not just for Dev Edition, but for Firefox in general.

@davidrevoy this is why you're my favorite

@wizzwizz4 @coldfish @davidrevoy ironically he was also the CEO of Mozilla... for like a month
@CosmicHorror @wizzwizz4 @coldfish @davidrevoy "Too bad a CEO for Mozilla" is a hell of a burn.

@Gynux @davidrevoy
does disabling via about:config no longer work?@Kampfdiestel @Gynux @davidrevoy there is (maybe) some hope with that https://mastodon.social/@firefoxwebdevs/115740500373677782 (and this kill switch will maybe make the job to remove it easier) but the worst thing is that (a good part of) the remaining FF devs will spend a lot of time on these features instead of improving more important things...

@wizzwizz4 @davidrevoy really??? Dammit. I was enjoying this thing
@coldfish @wizzwizz4 @davidrevoy try @zenbrowser based on Firefox with a policy of removing any AI functionality that is added

@davidrevoy so sad

@Zekovski @Johns_priv @OndrejZizka Hi, which one is that?
Thanks in advance.@rival @Johns_priv @OndrejZizka
I understand you are asking for a source ? So that's what I will answer.I've been looking for it quickly but can't find. Maybe I mixed it up with something else.
I could read the TOS when I have the time if you insist. -
@davidrevoy it’s tragic

@pmiossec
That's not true Philippe. We're hiring to work on these things, this means this doesn't change what the other engineers are working on. You could say that this money could be used elsewhere, sure, but still I hope this reduces your concern.
@Kampfdiestel @Gynux @davidrevoy -
@davidrevoy I'm sure all Mozilla's strategy is not in any way an intentional act of self-sabotage coincident with a period of minimal regulatory oversight.

@davidrevoy I actually like how Firefox has handled AI - small local models, no spying to train AI on my data. For users who insist on using a mainstream online chatbot, it lets them do it without forcing it on others. (And there are more such users than I thought. People who I thought are way too computer illiterate to use AI surprised me by using ChatGPT.)
Firefox lets me translate text locally without big tech spying on my translations. Is this bad because it happens to use neural networks?

@davidrevoy I already moved to LibreWolf on my desktop, but I'm still looking for an alternative for Firefox on my phone.
