Overview
- A central AI controls panel introduces a global “Block AI enhancements” toggle that disables all current and future generative AI features in Firefox.
- Users can individually enable or block five tools: translations, alt text for images in PDFs, AI-enhanced tab grouping, link previews, and a sidebar chatbot.
- The chatbot sidebar supports multiple services, including Anthropic Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Google Gemini, and Le Chat Mistral.
- The block option suppresses pop-ups or reminders about AI features, and preferences persist across browser updates.
- Controls are off by default and respect existing choices, and Mozilla is inviting early feedback via Mozilla Connect as it fulfills CEO Anthony Enzor-DeMeo’s opt-out pledge.
