When I started working on AI at Mozilla two years ago, I was a Python developer with a background in web services and three months of machine learning experience from working on the Nuclia DB project. I was not someone who had trained models from scratch or built production ML infrastructure. Today, Firefox ships multiple AI features that run entirely on-device, and I helped build the infrastructure that makes that possible. This is a retrospective on what we accomplished and what I learned along the way.

You did? Well thanks for driving me away from Firefox I guess.

Nobody wants AI in Firefox.

Me neither.

But if that is true about the PDF captioning and smart tab grouping I might try them out. I just assumed they were server side before.

Rules

While we are not an official Mozilla community, we have adopted the Mozilla Community Participation Guidelines as far as it can be applied to a bin.

Rules

  1. Always be civil and respectful
    Don't be toxic, hostile, or a troll, especially towards Mozilla employees. This includes gratuitous use of profanity.

  2. Don't be a bigot
    No form of bigotry will be tolerated.

  3. Don't post security compromising suggestions
    If you do, include an obvious and clear warning.

  4. Don't post conspiracy theories
    Especially ones about nefarious intentions or funding. If you're concerned: Ask. Please don’t fuel conspiracy thinking here. Don’t try to spread FUD, especially against reliable privacy-enhancing software. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Show credible sources.

  5. Don't accuse others of shilling
    Send honest concerns to the moderators and/or admins, and we will investigate.

  6. Do not remove your help posts after they receive replies
    Half the point of asking questions in a public sub is so that everyone can benefit from the answers—which is impossible if you go deleting everything behind yourself once you've gotten yours.
