    You mean hope that they too don’t become subject to enshittification? I don’t have a lot of faith in that.

    Besides that, Google is controlling as fuck. They might keep fucking themselves over but there’s no way they won’t start attempting to ruin things for the rest of us.

      It seems Mozilla is not immune to the AI hype. I just hope their AI endeavour won’t kill them when the AI hype finally ends.

        Thankfully the AI use is very tame so far, used for stuff like offline alt text generation and offline translation. I’m personally still concerned about copyrights and ethics of the models used, but at least it’s directed towards providing specific features, not a magic cure-all.

          I’m more concerned with Mozilla spending its meager resources to chase some fads instead of focusing on improving firefox.

        to be fair they are the only ones i know of putting it to actual good use.

        ai itself is not the problem.
