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

And WHY were these "True" by default?
Why once even re-enabled?

Mozilla isn't trustworthy.

The so-called ML is an invasion of privacy and a waste of computing resource.

Go back to a Classic Firefox that's ONLY a browser and repects OS GUI look & feel instead of copying Google. ---Attachments--- image: https://cdn.masto.host/mastodonie/media_attachments/files/116/002/254/501/606/950/original/47f148927d15e906.png

@raymaccarthy about:config isn't intended to be for user settings. That's why we've created a dedicated AI controls page, and we're the first to do so.
