Firefox Community Forum

I recently heard about Mozilla's potential future plans to increase the browser's AI features, and wanted to voice my concerns about this.

I avoid using AI due to environmental, privacy, and ethical reasons, and one of my main motivations for choosing Firefox over another browser is specifically because of the option to turn AI features off. (And I believe this is the case for a large portion of the userbase.)

If Mozilla opts to push for more AI implementation within Firefox, I will switch to another browser.

I don't want to see more AI features on this browser. I don't care for its harmful effects on the environment and I use Firefox to escape the bullshit of Google Chrome and other web browsers. I'm probably going to switch completely if more AI features are added.

There are so many reasons why people don't want AI on Firefox. If I wanted AI, I'd go and use a chromium browser. I came to Firefox to get away from AI bull, not to have it shoved down my throat here as well.

If the new AI changes roll out I'm going to be finding another browser that won't risk my privacy just for a machine that only works half the time or add to AI centers destroying the environment. Thanks!

I use Firefox and recommend it to others entirely because it's proven to be one of the browsers with the least privacy concerns and bloat. Mozilla's recent intention to make Firefox a "modern AI browser" and riddle it with unwanted software additions ruins everything users love about the browser. If this AI integration moves forward, I'll be switching from Firefox to another browser.

I don't know who thought it was a good idea to put someone who is pro-AI in charge of the anti-AI browser. I'm on Firefox because it doesn't use AI. You want to add in the most foolish, expensive, environmentally destructive, money sink that none of the userbase wants? Fine. I don't have brand loyalty. You choose personal wealth over the health of our environment and community by shoveling AI stupidity at us, I will drop this browser like a lead weight and switch to the lesser known browsers. I hear Waterfox hasn't bought into the slop yet. Might be time to change over to a more mindful system.

Use of AI in Firefox destroys incentive to use Firefox at all. Implementation of AI features represents an obvious misunderstanding of the browser's userbase. I will switch browsers.

The only reason to use this website is that you're the only otpion without AI nonsense in it. Why on erth would you ever choose to do something that removes one of the primary reasons to use your service over competitors.
