By the way, I don’t appreciate people who downplay the negatives of AI: I can’t lower my electricity bills or prevent environmental destruction by flipping a switch. I can’t avoid inhaling poisonous gases by setting an esoteric flag in an esoteric location in Firefox. It would be great if I could, but I can’t.
Are you saying that not only do you not want to have AI-related features in your browser, you want to stop everyone else from having those features as well?
I don’t appreciate people who try to tell me what features I’m allowed to use. Especially on the basis of ludicrously overblown environmental concerns - AI is not a significant source of environmental destruction compared to a great many far more common human activities. Aim your crusade somewhere more productive.
You can want your toy, but don’t deny it comes at the cost of raising everybody else’s electric bills and polluting everybody else’s air and water. Big Tech does not need you to be their evangelist.

FaceDeer, you don’t need to lie to people here about the environmental harm of AI.
