I tend to agree with you. Doesn’t make what Mozilla is doing sensible.
In 1995, one could correctly observe that the internet would “play a role in nearly every interaction we have with a computer.” It would not follow that every app must reïnvent the network stack.
An AI helping out can be useful. Every app being a tiny AI is a cacophony of idiots.
If they were training their own foundational model your analogy would be on the mark. But this is more like porting a command line application to a GUI.
