We’re excited to be partnering with Mistral to bring open-source AI to Firefox Smart Window beta and expand access to France, with French-language support.

Where Waterfox stands on AI and LLMs - Waterfox Blog
Waterfox will not incorporate LLMs into the browser. However, AI predates chatbots, so implementing a blanket ban on AI would mean opting out of modern computing.

people say that they're going to use waterfox instead, as if that's in any way an effective boycott… waterfox as a fork is entirely dependent on firefox. if you somehow managed to strangle firefox, the non-profit, of an income, waterfox would *immediately* cease to be.
y'all truly are geniuses…

This is a fully optional experience that you have to turn on yourself and is separate from your regular browsing.
In fact, you don't have to use AI features in Firefox period. You can choose to enable or block features entirely in Settings > AI Controls.
