Firefox Community Forum

Please don't fucking add more AI bullshit into the browser version of firefox im begging. I swtiched to firefox instead of chrome because you guys had LESS issues but now you're adding MORE issues. I'm gonna switch to something else if you do this. AI is not gonna help you in the long run. Bye.

I think you should consider launching your new CEO out of a canon, metaphorically speaking.

If people wanted AI slop shoved in their faces, they'd go use a crappy chromium browser, which is where that stuff lives. We use Firefox because we don't want any of that crap in our browsing experience. "As long as you can trust it" - who does this guy think he is? You can't 'trust' AI, it's not a person, it's a tool (implement) used by tools (inept idiot).

You also can't trust corporations that pivot to AI, either. If you want to double down on anything relating to AI, then double down on keeping Firefox AI slop free, and ensuring that you are the browser for those that need refuge from this crap.

I remember when Firefox really was a nonprofit that survived on donations from its users, rather than just another corporate shill for companies and LLMs.

Be better. You disappoint me.

Apparently, the new CEO has decided to integrate more AI. I do not like this. The main reason I use FireFox and Mozilla is that it doesn’t add AI bloatware and has better privacy and security. The fact that this company is considering adding even more AI is enough to make me stop using them entirely. When they originally added AI overview, summary, and a chatbot I nearly switched to something else. I know there are not many browsers that aren’t owned by Google or a parent company left, but by god I will find one.

If you integrate AI, I will not be using your browser. It’s bad enough that other companies are doing this already, don’t be a jackass and start doing it too.

The rise of AI in a browser i specifically use to not have to deal with it is honestly not making me want to use it anymore. Stop implementing AI and get off the enshittification train.

I have 4 rows of links on my desktop. How can I set these so that every article I read or You Tube video I watch doesn't replace something I want to stay on my desktop?

Can support for Harmony Next system be added, such as for phones, tablets, and computers? Looking forward to your reply. I really like using this browser. HarmonyOS

Firefox has made its niche in the browser lands by being a usable user-friendly non-Chromium Privacy-First Browser. adding AI to it does nothing to improve or advance this image users have of it, and rather risks actively dicouraging new users from migrating to it, and further could result in a large group of your existing userbase leaving to find a less; unfortunately the word used for this process is enshittification; shittified browser. LLMs and other Generative AI features are tools that a vanishingly small segment of your userbase want in their browser, and certainly an addition that will drive many users away from it if it continues to be added to a large-enough extent to declare firefox as an "AI Browser". Why not just offer a different browser entirely under the mozzila umbrella that is an AI-Forward Browser, and leave Firefox to us crotchety old men yelling at clouds that would rather not interact with the flagrant waste of resources that is generative AI.
