Mozilla Tests AI Sidebar in Firefox

Mozilla is giving Firefox users a taste of artificial intelligence with a new feature called the smart window. This optional tool places an assistant right next to your browser tabs, giving you quick access to helpful prompts and answers while you browse the web.

Privacy is a big focus for this test. The feature is completely optional, meaning it stays turned off until you actively choose to use it. If you try it out and decide you do not like it, a simple toggle switch lets you turn it off immediately.

Browser makers are racing to add artificial intelligence tools to their software. While some competitors force these features on users, Mozilla is taking a cautious approach by keeping the choice in your hands. We will watch to see if users embrace this new sidebar or stick to traditional browsing.
