I've used Firefox for 15 years and I really don't want to use Chrome. Can Mozilla just, like, make a good browser?

Not defending mozilla adding AI to firefox, but...

If you've tried chrome recently, you'll know that it's jam packed full with even more stuff you don't want. And the article lays out how to easily disable all AI in firefox (which you cant do at all in Chrome)

I'm very pleased that disabling browser.ml.enable doesn't disable local translation. I don't need a dedicated UI for chat bots, but I find local translation very useful.
