Firefox will be a browser with AI, but Mozilla is already preparing a switch to deactivate all the new functions

Firefox will become a browser with artificial intelligence (AI), but it will have a configuration option that will allow you to disable all functions that use this technology, for those users who are not so enthusiastic about it.

The arrival of a new executive director at Mozilla Corporation has made it possible to know the new direction that the browser it develops will take. Led by Anthony Enzor-DeMeo, it will be transformed into a modern browser with AI and compatible with new software additions.

Although Enzor-DeMeo has made his stance on AI clear, arguing that “it should always be an option, something that people can easily turn off“, many browser users have not received the news well.

However, Mozilla has already clarified that this new venture will have what they have called internally “an AI kill switch”, that is, an option that will allow you to disable all the features and functions that use that technology.

As the Firefox for Web Developers profile on Mastodon has explained, all the AI ​​features they introduce They will be optionaland although they understand that this may generate doubts among users, they ask that they trust their work a little.
