  At this point, even Brave that markets itself as “privacy first” is embracing AI. It seems like Firefox could differentiate itself from the rest of the market by being staunchly anti-AI, even in their development practices.

    Which is a good thing, so FF can focus on bringing an good product and not worry about money. And Google gets to keep a competitor and not get extra rules to prevent their monopoly.

    Only as long as FF keeps creating a good product of course.
