Agents shouldn’t have to figure everything out from scratch.

Right now, they do.

cq is a Stack Overflow for agents, where knowledge is shared and improved over time.

Less repetition. More reliable outcomes.

@MozillaAI Have you ever considered making a nice reliable fast browser instead of pushing unwanted "ai" garbage on your users?

@hembrow @MozillaAI fast and uses a lot less memory.

@pinskia Indeed. The memory usage is absolutely crazy. I seem to remember the first version of Netscape Navigator running perfectly well alongside other processes on machines with 64 Mb. @MozillaAI

@hembrow @pinskia @MozillaAI this is mainly reacts fault. js was never meant for this. 1990s websites run lightning fast and use 0 memory compared to now

@glassresistor @hembrow @pinskia @MozillaAI I remember playing an old browser game that had no client-side scripting. Each command was just a link that ended up being a page with the game's next state. It loaded so fast that it was entirely flicker-free, and actually looked like a game... on Internet Explorer. We've always had the technology.

Architecting Consent for AI: Deceptive Patterns in Firefox Link Previews

TL;DR: Mozilla has a new CEO and a new mission: transform Firefox into an AI browser. That has run into some snags, as Firefox users don’t seem that interested in AI. Mozilla is forging ahead, utilizing deceptive patterns (previously known as dark patterns) to nag and annoy people into enabling AI features. You can see this in the introduction of Link Previews, an extremely invasive anti-feature that exists solely to push AI into your experience.
