"Mozilla has been adding in llm & ai related features to Firefox for a while, enabling them by default without asking the user... The main problem with this is users are having this forced on them with no gui option to disable these features."

Article contains instructions for disabling the LLM through about:config.

Not the gp but I started using LibreWolf last year after my camel’s back was broken by Mozilla Corp shenanigans, I am very grateful for it

Unfortunately, at the moment, we can't trust Mozilla and by extension with AI items so these things were removed.

I used librewolf and waterfox as well for a bit, until I noticed that were lagging behind on updates.

Now I just run vanilla Firefox auth arkenfox.js user prefs. Disables everything you'd want out of the box
