“zzt how dare you accuse Mozilla employees of suffering from very obvious LLM psychosis”
please “enjoy” the State of Mozilla, one of the least hinged things I’ve seen released with pride by an established corporation: https://stateof.mozilla.org/ (epilepsy warning)
note the 2001-style not-Flash intro. the fake captcha. the timecube-esque prattle about AI threatening humanity. “DO NOT ACCEPT DEFAULT SETTINGS”. the ASCII art cop finger in the footer of the main page. all of it. what in fuck is this.
@zzt Viewing on my Pi, I was curious if the slop video at the top continued to play while I scrolled further down the article. I couldn't quite figure it out using the scroll wheel (moves too far), so tried with the scrollbar.
I say tried, because it's been a while since I used it in Firefox and it's now desperately thin. Just to add to the torrent of paper cuts.

@zzt @ifixcoinops Wow. It’s so bad it managed to make me hate Liquid Ass a little more, even.

As in the web era, it's going to take a powerful community to win. Today Mozilla is gathering a rebel alliance of sorts, a growing network of open source developers, responsible startups, fellows, philanthropists and public-interest technologists working to shape what the internet becomes.
All you have to do to convince techbros to invest is make everything sound like Star Wars.We Choose Humanity: We need to build for human agency—tech that fuels creativity and fiercely protects privacy.
I feel so creatively inspired when I have AI slop shoved into my face at every possible turn, in every ad, every billboard, every supermarket product.
And yes, please tell me Mozilla Foundation, how you plan on protecting my privacy in the infinitely vast Scrooge McDuck pool of tasty tasty personal user data. -
@bnys according to the financial numbers they’ve sporadically released: literally millions of dollars each are going to the people directly responsible for this, as the few pure browser developers left at mozilla (who are excellent people in a terrible situation) make far less than they should

@zzt I assume that "doing for AI what we did for the web" means backtracking on open standards to compete with Microsoft and watching their market share drop to sub-5%.

@lunareclipse @zzt Well you see, firefox corporate drones get firmware updates the same way the Timex DataLink watch did in the 90s. Flashing lights.

Becoming disabled sure has it's perks. -
firefox users: please make the LLM features in firefox a non-default plugin, opt-in, or better yet don’t do them at all
mozilla: DO NOT ACCEPT DEFAULT SETTINGS. slop is destroying the web! *posts a bunch of slop videos and text in an annual corporate update*
mozilla staff: we asked our community and they hallucinated that they don’t like AI even though we prompted them to not hallucinate.
mozilla’s remaining fan: why are you so angry at my best friend mozilla. stop being unreasonable.

@hawyer what, you don’t like open source* LLMs?
* extremely thin open source wrappers around binary blobs provably based on a leaked proprietary model which was itself based on plagiarized and pirated text, images, and videos sourced by unethically scraping the web in the most destructive manner ever devised**
** when convenient mozilla ignores this definition and pretends we’re talking about Firefox’s subpar pre-LLM translation feature that should itself probably be a plugin

@zzt Good freaking grief, how much money did they waste on this?
This doesn't even rise to the level of a Ron Popeil ad -- because at least he *knew* what he was selling.
