Mozilla is building an AI 'rebel alliance' to take on industry heavweights

I ask this about nearly every software company. Almost every vendor of ours has dedicated quite a lot of time and energy to useless AI features.

I think part of the issue is that AI isn't just "features" and things like ChatGPT but it's the underpinning tech for the internet right now. I'm a dev and feel like any tech company or developer has to engage with it or at least understand it. You can't put your head in the sand. I like that you'll be able to just turn off all the AI features on Firefox; I'd rather they weren't there but there is a choice to just not use any of it.
