Firefox for Web Developers@firefoxwebdevs@mastodon.social (2026-02-03 02:04:39)
AI Controls (formally 'kill switch') are landing in today's Firefox Nightly, and will land with Firefox 148 later this month. 

For the full details, see the Firefox blog https://blog.mozilla.org/en/firefox/ai-controls/ ---Attachments--- video: https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/116/002/119/428/537/379/original/5dcfa9e0a8ba85a4.mp4

Imagine getting a similar warning when turning off any other feature…

@ainmosni @firefoxwebdevs it does delete models. They can be re-downloaded, of course, but that might be significant disruption for some users
