Turn off AI in Firefox

[Grogan]

Mozilla is adding AI inference for processing the naming of tab groups, address bar completion (these have been currently rolled back I think) and an AI chatbot in the sidebar. THAT is still present, but can be unticked (mine was, and I don't ever use a sidebar or tab grouping)

I think this is the master setting to turn off all that inference junk. There are numerous individual settings for this "browser.ml" shit in there if you search for "browser.ml" (and that is a lower case L if the fonts don't make that clear... I don't know what it stands for)

Code: Select all

browser.ml.enable

toggles to false.

Just for good measure, I also toggled this to false:

Code: Select all

browser.ml.chat.enabled

P.S. browser.ml.chat.enabled removes the checkbox for AI chat in sidebar settings, which is still there with the master setting, so yes, false for that too.

Thanks, I encountered that annoying sidebar when I setup my mini computer and wasn't sure how to get rid of it. So far that's the only place I've seen it.
