    Orbit currently uses a version of Mistral LLM (Mistral 7B) that is locally hosted on Mozilla’s Google Cloud Platform instance.

    Hmm.

    >locally hosted

    >Google Cloud

    Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

      Sounds like they’re running their own LLM instance on googles cloud infrastructure vs using something like OpenAI via API.

      As web dev parlance it makes sense but for marketing it is definitely confusing and they should do better.

        Yeah, we “self-host” our app at AWS at work, which means we configure everything ourselves. I “self-host” a VPS at Hetzner for personal projects, and my actual data is actually self-hosted on a machine on my LAN.

      Thanks for the link to the privacy policy. You notice, at the bottom, it has links to both “About Mozilla” and “About FakeSpot”?

      When you run the Orbit extension, it connects to two domains with every request:

      1. orbitbymozilla.com
      2. prod.orbit-ml-front-api.fakespot.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net

      There’s FakeSpot again.

      And FakeSpot has a terrible privacy policy that allows sale of private data directly to advertisers.

    I don’t want that. I want full control and absolute privacy. I do not want your AI reading my emails. Look at that summary, it’s as long as the whole email, and you’re not going to be able to trust that it picked up on the most important part of the email. This is not efficiency, this is novelty.

        I won’t. But my concern is that Mozilla is heading in the wrong direction lately, and I have used Firefox for a very long time.

            Yes, I’m glad this BS is an extension. I’m not happy that they’re spending time on this vs projects people actually seem to want. AI appeared nowhere on the top-10 survey results, yet this is what they come up with. I just hope they didn’t spend a ton of time on it.
