I should go to the library more
Yeah, just create an entirely new, incompatible extension engine from scratch for this one feature specifically!
Pleasure doing business, good sir
Ah, I missed that alt text specifically is local, but the point stands, in that allowing (opt-in) access to a 3rd party service is reasonable, even if that service doesn’t have the same privacy standards as Mozilla itself
To pretty much every non-technical user, an AI sidebar that won’t work with ChatGPT (Google search’s equivalent from my example previously) may as well not be there at all
They don’t want to self host an LLM, they want the box where chat gpt goes
There’s plenty of situations where even a contextless generated alt-text is a huge improvement on no alt-text at all
Mozilla isn’t in charge of the extension API, it uses Chromium’s WebExtensions API
The alternative is only supporting self hosted LLMs, though, right?
Imagine the scenario: you’re a visually impaired, non-technical user. You want to use the alt-text generation. You’re not going to go and host your own LLM, you’re just going to give up and leave it.

Gender equality, however, does imply a fairer society
That’s the maximum non-custodial sentence
The swastika doesn’t have the same associations with the Nazis in Asia
Which bit did I make up?
Ah yes, because there definitely wasn’t some other common characteristic to the (not only leftist, as you carefully avoided mentioning) parties that were banned
Something like, I don’t know, supporting the country actively invading Ukraine, perhaps?
Ok 👍
