They won’t, it’s a stupid blog that is making shit up.

Brave is as stupid as manually installing a virus, I bet you are correct that that is the kind of idiots we are dealing with.

Your source is a blog with a stupid anecdote from Japan as its main feature. Why should I take that seriously?

standard approach with such a controversial feature

The “controversial” features:

1. Alt-text generation: Creates descriptions for images, which is particularly useful for making PDFs more accessible to screen readers.
2. On-device translation: Translates web pages without sending your content to external servers, protecting your privacy.
3. Smart tab groups: Analyzes open tabs to suggest names and group similar ones together to help with organization.
4. Link previews: Generates key points from articles to give you a quick summary.

These are all very modest in requirements even on an old phone. And the use is actually zero unless you use the function.
AFAIK all further AI functionalities are all optional.

Number one is particularly useful for blind people, a group that absolutely needs screen readers to work well.

So again stop the bullshitting, just because you are bullshitting yourself too doesn’t make it better.
Either that or mention just one single specific function you “needed” to disable and why.
IMO your misunderstood whining is annoying.

Personally I use the translation function a lot, it is both very handy and very good, and I have used it for both Russian and Ukrainian and Chinese, and it works surprisingly well.
But maybe you speak every language on the planet, or find it more convenient to use an online translator, leaving unnecessary extra digital trails and requiring extra bandwidth?
How you don’t find that feature useful is beyond me???

I don’t trust the corporate overlords to do what’s right long term.

You don’t have to, if Mozilla really screwed the pooch with Firefox it would be forked. Debian used to do it with IceWeasel over a petty thing like the copyright of the Firefox logo, which 100% has always been justified, and is necessary to distinguish between an official Firefox and a fork.

The AI bullshit features as you call them are completely non invasive, I always use the newest Firefox, and I never even noticed those features.

Stop the bullshitting and complaining over things are completely irrelevant. and will never ever have any negative influence on anything you do with Firefox.
I’m so sick of this lame community doing this over and over and over again, and it always turns out to be nothing.

Yes they are, because I bet this, as always, is a complete nothing burger, just like the previous 10 times the past year I’ve seen similar baseless attacks on Firefox.

Why the fuck is lemmy so chuck full of anti Fiirefox and anti Mozilla propaganda?
I even see comments about Firefox needing to be open source again!?!?
It FUCKING IS open source, anybody can fork it if they want to, the only thing they can’t do is use the Firefox logo and name.

You are all a bunch of idiots!! (everybody who upvoted this trash blog)

Yes you are right, it’s hard to find an analogy that is both as stupid and also sounds somewhat plausible.
Because of course a bread company cannot reasonably claim that eating their bread is against terms of service. But that’s exactly the problem, because it’s the exact same for OpenAI, they cannot reasonably claim what they are claiming.

That’s like a gun company claiming using their weapons for robbery is a violation of terms of service.

I have never heard of a western democracy that has a witch hunt against homeless people to near the degree that is common in USA.
So yes this level of evil harassment against homeless people is mostly limited to America. USA has become the dystopia SciFi stories warned us against since a century ago. And most Americans don’t even know it.

They patch it with AI, and that makes it possible to make the phone cheaper without people noticing.

Another phone with a serious camera downgrade over previous models. 🙁
The 13T had a 50% bigger main sensor!!!

Cool thanks. 👍

From what I’ve seen on other “advanced” humanoid robots, it probably could, using 4-10 times as much time as you would yourself, and breaking a few pieces in the process.

As a result, these families received thousands death threats.

There should be absolutely no playing nice with these people.

Well put, that’s exactly what I mean.

For some people sex is a minor thing, what matters is emotional closeness. You can have closeness without sex.
I think you can find someone without too much sex easily, I hear all over the place that men are actually tiring of sex just as much as many women are.
The main difference being that women often think it’s their fault when men don’t want to have sex.

Hey relax, take it easy now, don’t make crazy demands on Microsoft.
They’ve just recently released Windows 11, and I’m sure they will have it completed soon,
and have all core features broken.

WTF? blocked.
