Firefox settings screen: "AI Controls You always have a choice in Firefox, including whether to use features enhanced with AI. More controls coming soon.

Mozilla promises that if you flip this switch, they won't keep surprising you with new AI features.

    Well the need for all those other settings apparently nullifies that idea. Unless the people recommending that I turn off all those pieces are doing so solely out of paranoia and maybe it's redundant and unnecessary to turn off all but the main one. Which could be the case, maybe but I personally lean toward the paranoid side

    Up until this point, the hodgepodge of half-hidden settings was a necessity, because Mozilla hadn't rolled out the setting we had today. Every few months, Mozilla would announce a new AI feature, and onto the pile of things to disable it would go.
