Just want to raise up the design of this “AI kill switch” in Firefox, and say how much I like it: it’s a top-level preference, and the design and content are both *very* clear in communicating the different levels at which you’re making decisions.
I would *love* to see more product companies roll out something like this for their en-LLM’d features.
Also, Default state should always be Off.
Switching it on should be a choice, not an assumption.
In before the replies to say: 1. yes, I wish it was opt-in; 2. yes, I’d much rather something like this didn’t need to be designed in the first place Given all that, and until that happy day that “AI” platforms are rendered down into their component pieces and sold for scrap, I think this is a really, really good piece of design.
Bugger, only the main post showed here. Apologies and kudos
