I really like those local AI features. It's tempting me yo move to vanilla Firefox over LibreWolf...

I'm still ambivalent on the rest of the AI features, but the AI translation is absolutely amazing. The translation quality isn't perfect, but being able to seamlessly translate 20+ languages 100% locally is amazing.

I agree, I'm generally sceptical of new AI "features" in the browser and will be turning most of them off. But the translation feature (which has been in Firefox for a while now) is great. The difference is that translation in a browser is something that is clearly useful and has always been AI-based to an extent, so shipping with a local model for translation is a strict improvement (leaving aside any difference in translation quality, which I have not noticed). The other AI features are not obviously useful IMO.
