@alextecplayz @mozilla on that last point:
> As the project grows, we anticipate the browser will store more models, which can take up significant space on disk. We plan to add an interface in Firefox to manage downloaded models so our users can list them and remove some if needed.

@v @mozilla I skimmed through the article so I may have missed it, but that is pretty good! I'm hoping that they won't include any model by default purely to save space, unless they can make it small enough (smaller than 50-75MB), and on the first startup, to prompt the user when setting Firefox up, if they want to 'enable the feature', which would download the AI model(s).

@alextecplayz @mozilla the flow for translations they give is this:
> For example, if you run Firefox in French and visit an English page, Firefox will ask if you want to translate it to French and download the English-to-French model (~20MiB) alongside the inference runtime. This is a one-shot download: translations will happen completely offline once those files are on disk.
which seems very reasonable!
