"Mozilla has been adding in llm & ai related features to Firefox for a while, enabling them by default without asking the user... The main problem with this is users are having this forced on them with no gui option to disable these features."

Article contains instructions for disabling the LLM through about:config.

So, enabled how? Tell me how it's enabled, that I can't turn of by the UI? I use Firefox, do you? I haven't met LLMs in my use, in any way - most demands that you sign in, and I haven't... Sure, you have the possibility in the sidebar, but you have to use it... it's an option.

So tell me, what does the article say, is enabled by default? The possibility?

    Please read. "LLM features cannot be disabled in the UI"

    Like you're saying, the feature is there, you're seeing it in your own browser. There is no UI option to disable seeing it.

    There's also an option to install thousand of addons, and no UI option to disable seeing them.... Oh wait, how about just not going there!

    This is so stupid. It's like not liking to use tables in a writing program, and removed about the option to use it, is there!

    Oh, BTW - You can actually right click on the "Open AI chatbot" and choose to hide it... But I guess that's too obvious for you, right?
