Consider context. There are a variety of problems with LLM "AI". One of the many problems is that LLMs are, almost by necessity, grounded in cloud services, which creates a variety of secondary issues around surveillance, un-auditability and user dependency. In the past, when Mozilla has worked on machine learning, they have stuck to (and been widely praised for) a "local model" approach that avoids cloud services. See their translation feature, their (discontinued) text-to-speech engine, etc.
