    I hate the new preview feature. Also I haven’t tried the LLM tab grouping but I really don’t want Firefox using more memory, I mean come on.

      It’s not an LLM, AI does not mean LLM

        It’s a Language Model.

        https://huggingface.co/Mozilla/smart-tab-embedding

        In this case it’s based off of MiniLM. https://huggingface.co/sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2

        So I guess it’s not a large language model, but it’s a bit confusing to just say MLM. You’d think I was talking about a multi level marketing scheme.

        Edit: for reference this was pulled directly from the Firefox codebase. https://github.com/mozilla-firefox/firefox/blob/main/toolkit/components/ml/docs/perf.rst

        Considering it’s doing text-based transformation, wouldn’t that be an LLM or at least a very close sibling?

        Regardless, I’ve no idea why they would need to do this either. Even Google Chrome sorted this out years ago by adding an “open new tab in group” option.

          It’s a language model not a large language model a large language model is typically for text generation a language model is used for smaller tasks like grammar and stuff in LanguageTool and in this example tab grouping

      I don’t hate it but I’ll never use the preview. Seemed useless for me.
