Then complain about that, a real thing, instead of making vague statements about how they don't pass your vibe check by adding LLM stuff.

Do you assume that local AI models in Firefox will NOT send any telemetry data as the default setting?

Yes. I will assume that unless it is found to be untrue, because I don't think making up things to be upset about is productive.

Being skeptical isn’t the same thing as trashing them. Mozilla are not above reproach, and should be questioned thoroughly

This is true, but it is not what you're doing when you make comments like the one I originally replied to. Firefox putting local models in the browser for people that want to use models but don't want to send their data to cloud providers is directly a privacy forward option, and somehow you are twisting that into them selling your data.

Sorry, but that is not reasonable criticism. It is FUD.

What about the trend of Firefox being the only alternative entity to the massive public corporations that definitely don't have your best interests at heart that actually has the resources to develop and maintain a modern browser? Everytime Firefox posts anything you have people running around screaming that the sky is falling, and while they have made some missteps,

I don't see how local LLM models that you don't have to use is something to panic about, and I don't see how throwing the baby out with the bathwater is supposed to make the webbrowser landscape better. In fact, it would be giving all of the cards to Google.

I won't use any of these features, but this comment is pure FUD

That is accurate, though it doesn't say anything about scaling requirements

In what way? You haven't provided any information about scaling requirements

Note that while it is simple, you have to handle schedule persistence yourself, unlike the 2 you linked since they are backed by pg or redis

This has worked well for me before, on a small scale https://github.com/robfig/cron

It's not gate keeping it is true. I know devs that say ai tools are useful but all the ones that say it makes them multiples more productive are actually doing negative work because I have to deal with their terrible code they don't even understand.

To clarify, I just meant for establishing credit, not instead of a loan
