  I think they’re on the right path with this; developing small models than run locally, are purpose specifc, and don’t require sending data to a server farm is a good thing. I think they deserve credit for investigating a sustainable path for this technology to be useful.

  I will hold it against them that the training data was generated by ChatGPT, that’s problematic for many reasons. But that’s not my point.

  A lot of people seem to be freaking out like Mozilla simply embeded ChatGPT and gave it access to all your data, which they haven’t.

  This gives me hope that Mozilla is coming back as a technology innovator because they are clearly taking steps to address the many significant concerns with this technology. It seems to me the plan is to start small (tab groups, and alt text generation) and establish a roadway forward on a good foundation.

  To me (reading this article) the difference is clear. OpenAI is creating technology to replace you with a climate burning machine, Mozilla is trying to make your tools better and not senselessly waste resources.

  I think a sad part of this is due to people wanting that vapid dopamagic response the algorithm provideds.

  Is it bad for us? Yes.

  But addicts are going to addict 🫤

  I know lots of people who made a fediverse account easy enough, but just end up back on the algorithm platforms as there’s no effort required for discovery.

  There’re ever so annoying for pointing out the truth.
