We’ll just ignore the fact that the chat bot menu setting randomly appeared after an update. Very opt in. The only way to kill the task it sparks is to go into about:config and kill all the browser.ml.* options.
No one here cares what Firefox says because their actions have already hurt the trust in them.
Just going through settings was not enough. The process was still running. I don’t know which toggle fully killed it because I clicked everything off at once.
It should be something that people can easily turn ON.

Do the processes still run even if you toggle the setting off?

Except I literally had to dig through the about: config settings to turn off AI in my browsing experience. So they are already lying
I didn’t. So why is that?
Ah yes, the classic:
They must be maliciously lying instead of me using something wrong argument.
Very solid, much sound.
I can flip that around for you: “Ah yes, the classic: the user must be in the wrong, not the organisation with a history of secretly installing an extension nobody asked for”.
Ah yes, the classic:
This must be a single user with an edgecase problem instead of something that a lot of people actively have a problem with
If it’s so easy to “use wrong” then it’s badly designed software.
Any articles can be a click bait. The reality is what matters.
I didnt turn on AI in Firefox myself. It just appeared there after an update and was turned on. It is not opt in but an opt out.
