This is how to disable the new “AI” chatbot in #Firefox:

  • type about:config into the awesome bar
  • skip the warning for first time modders
  • locate the browser.ml.chat.enabled setting and set it to false

In the #Librewolf fork, a thoughtful person has already done this for you.

    There is actually a hidden option in about:config called browser.ml.chat.provider that allows you to set your own chatbot URL. I’m not sure if that works with the context menu setting (I find that annoying, so I haven’t tried), but I have set up https://duck.ai/ for example.
