The biggest issue with Mozilla if they didn’t decide to put some form of AI stuff in Firefox is that their competitors could use it as ammunition to fuel an as campaign painting Firefox as not only out of touch and outdated, but less secure because they don’t have AI security.
I can guarantee if average person, like my middle aged parents who aren’t very tech savvy, saw an ad pointing that out (no matter how untrue it is) I’d be told about it the next chance they got, proving they believe it.
They have to keep up with what their competitors are doing or get left behind and die a slow and painful death. AI is just the latest trend to be added, and Mozilla is just trying to keep up to ensure whatever remainder of normies still use Firefox don’t decide to abandon ship.
I personally don’t like it, but what other options are there?
Sadly the only people who would switch over to an actual Linux phone would be the people like the stereotypical Linux using Lemmy user. The average android user would just continue on like nothing happened because they’re not tech literate enough to know what’s going on or why they should care.
Got back into my New Vegas run. I have a good feeling that some time within the next few centuries I might even finish the game for the first time in my life.
Nothing against the game so far but kinda how I feel after playing a short amount of time in a cheap furry VN I got on steam. Not enough character portrait things.
Can’t wait for people to find out they just programmed the AI to reject all claims and then once it gets discovered, that person be silenced permanently.
And just like every other time, it’s China promising to work with the US while crossing their fingers behind their back and the US coming out of it for the n-th time thinking “they’re finally gonna listen to us”.
Nothing ever changes if open dialogue is your main choice of weapon.
This is one of the absolute greatest reasons to support opening most everything in a new tab (as long as you don’t end up like my mom who at one point had over 100 tabs on her phone). Doesn’t matter if it’s a link from the same website, from a search engine, or whatever else there is. New tab.
