Mozilla wants to know what you want them to focus on in the next few years. A lot of them are stuff about AI. Y’all should tell them how you feel about that mozillafoundation.tfaforms.net…

Quite annoying that they don't even mention the main problem of this kind of "AI": the huge energy cost & associated pollution, at a crucial time when we should be reducing all that. And all that cost for a system that is inaccurate and steals from artists and creators.

Oh well I added it in a comment 🤷

@elduvelle there's even the option to pick that "leveraging ai to help address climate, racial, gender justice" is important to you. Because of course that's how we fix anything. By wasting even more energy on bullshit generators.

El Duvelle reshared this.

@elduvelle same. should've been an option, the fact that it wasn't shows their blindness to it.

@elduvelle unless the items are randomized, the options I saw seemed to be biased towards "AI isn't a problem, the only thing that can be an issue is labeling or regulation", I mean, that's a giant leap from "Why are you even considering AI?". It's bound to bias the results.

(Having "AI steals jobs" as a thing there may also suggest, given the rest, bias towards "Generative Autocomplete can replace homo sapiens", which is a huge misconception to have when dealing with LLMs...)

@RobinMarx Fuck this AI shit. Give me a browser that’s not sprinkled with spy shit. Oh and tab groups. That would be neat

@gullevek I sent pretty much the same feedback about AI. Just give me a private and secure browser so that the web isn’t completely owned by Google.

1000% not surprised to find that "What is most important to you in AI" is the only multiple-choice question without an "Other" / freeform text entry, preventing anyone from saying that the most important thing is not existing.
