Mozilla’s new CEO is doubling down on an AI future for Firefox (www.theverge.com)
 

cross-posted from: https://news.idlestate.org/post/2337003

Mozilla is in a tricky position. It contains both a nonprofit organization dedicated to making the internet a better place for everyone, and a for-profit arm dedicated to, you know, making money. In the best of times, these things feed each other: The company makes great products that advance its goals for the web, and the nonprofit gets to both advocate for a better web and show people what it looks like. But these are not the best of times. Mozilla has spent the last couple of years implementing layoffs and restructuring, attempting to explain how it can fight for privacy and openness when Google pays most of its bills, while trying to find its place in an increasingly frothy AI landscape.

Fun times to be the new Mozilla CEO, right? But when I put all that to Anthony Enzor-DeMeo, the company’s just-announced chief executive, he swears he sees opportunity in all the upheaval. “I think what’s actually needed now is a technology company that people can trust,” Enzor-DeMeo says. “What I’ve seen with AI is an erosion of trust.”

Mozilla is not going to train its own giant LLM anytime soon. But there’s still an AI Mode coming to Firefox next year, which Enzor-DeMeo says will offer users their choice of model and product, all in a browser they can understand and from a company they can trust. “We’re not incentivized to push one model or the other,” he says. “So we’re going to try to go to market with multiple models.”

Please avoid GoDaddy.

GoDaddy has been involved in many controversies since its foundation in 1997.

I prefer NameCheap, but almost anyone is better than GoDaddy.

Why do you keep putting kidnapped in quotes? Do you believe the forced removal of a whole family is not considered kidnapping? Or are you just being pedantic: "It's not a kidnapping if they took more than just the kid. It's an abduction."

First sentence in your link:

A tone argument (also called tone policing) is a type of ad hominem aimed at the tone of an argument instead of its factual or logical content in order to dismiss a person's argument.

Please show me where I disagreed with anything you said. Where did I "dismiss a person's argument"? I'll wait. But I'll be waiting a long time because all I did was say I downvoted you for being so condescending.

Edit: typo

Sounds like you have a reading comprehension problem. I downvoted you for being so condescending, it had nothing to do with politics.

You think the only reason someone would downvote you (god forbid) is because they're emotionally attached to a political party? That's laughable. Like I said earlier, get over yourself.

Trump shock spurs Japan to think about the unthinkable: nuclear arms (www.reuters.com)
 

In Japan and South Korea there is deepening concern over the reliability of long-time American security guarantees – whether the U.S. will come to their aid in the event of a war. This has been turbo-charged by Donald Trump’s tough treatment of traditional U.S. allies, which has some in Tokyo and Seoul calling for a reassessment of their non-nuclear policies.
