I was curious as well and wanted to try how this work, so I asked claude to create a plugin for that. This utilizes built-in autocomplete behavior. If you want to give it a try then feel free to have a look here https://github.com/lumnn/AItoComplete (did not push it to packagecontrol yet)
Re:Firefox Forcing LLM Features on Saturday November 08, 2025 @03:22PM (#45859639)
I'm not sure if I ever used any LLM features from Firefox besides exploring, but so far it seems great they're trying local approach instead of sending it to some "partner".

In the comment section here I see lot of people complaining about the fact it's enabled by default as well as some concerns about resource usage. Could someone experienced in desktop app architecture explain if disabling them functionalities makes Firefox that much faster or using less resouces? I'd assume that those functionalities are kind of loaded on demand?

"AI" became such a keyword that seem to instantly give either positive or negative response, it's also an advertised feature of every second app with many of them just forcing AI into you just because of hype. This doesn't seem to be a case in Firefox - so I highly disagree with the title - the features are there but they don't go into your way if you don't want them, therefore it's easy to just use it, only when needed

I wouldn't say most polished. Out of the box LineageOS comes with better stock apps like gallery, dialler or SMS app.

The very first thing we do, when we create a new e-commerce website is to change "cart" to "basket" everywhere we can find it. Without that - as our manager says - we wouldn't sell anything on UK market
