But this is talking about users who switched to Firefox only AFTER being presented with a choice directly in their face. The Firefox AI options are turned on by default, and I can’t remember if it was easily guided to turn them off. So this group may not find that an easy solution, or find it at all.
The difference is that there is a switch. Chrome does not. Not to mention, Firefox has optional AI features, which is different from a local AI model automatically installed. Mozilla/Mozilla staff has been vocal about how bad of an idea it is to make local AI a web standard reference
Firefox lets you implicitly disable or remove them, slop browsers do not.
I don’t like AI either but lets not pretend there’s an equivalency between these browsers.
