I’m not sure why all the down-votes… But I’m not lying… Look at: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/02/mozilla-lays-off-60-people-wants-to-build-ai-into-firefox/. Or https://digiworld.news/news/65190/mozilla-invests-30m-to-launch-mozillaai-and-redefine-the-next-era-of-ai. There are literately millions invested into AI by Mozilla.

And they are mostly hiring AI engineers as well: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/careers/listings/

I’m assuming because they don’t have those AI engineers. I don’t agree with this or AI, but diversification isn’t something that can be ignored.

They need to focus on browser and bet on things that could succeed in the future. Winding down those bets that failed (like 3d visual worlds) is sensible.

Of the 60 they are laying off, how many of those work on Firefox?
