Perplexity AI Search in Firefox
On desktop, Firefox now includes Perplexity, an AI-powered answer engine built into the browser. Perplexity delivers direct, conversational answers to complex questions, helping you get quick summaries, accurate references, or creative inspiration without digging through multiple sources. It’s rolling out worldwide from the address bar via the unified search button.
Again I must go into my 100+ line firefox configuration and remove this shit.
This looks like they just added a new search engine option that you can remove via settings. Honestly, good for them. Perplexity is clearly spending a lot of money on marketing right now, and at least Mozilla is getting a piece of the pie.
