Mozilla seems more towards local and privacy preserving AI Dev, no? Both are really lacking in the space IMHO

Like I'm not interested in what the collective of digital knowledge looks like behind several corporate filters and giant rent seeking moat.

    True, and I get that realistically they do need to diversify away from Firefox ... but it still feels bandwagoney to me given that seemingly every tech company (and Wendy's) are piling into the AI train all at once. Like I said, though, I think I'm just getting too old for this.

    Mozilla's business is sucking up to Google for that vendor money they spend to avoid litigation (and its not working).

    Google gives Mozilla its money to appear that they aren't trying to corner the browser space with Chrome. If they win the argument in court they aren't monopolizing, they don't have to give Mozilla shit anymore.
