This is generated on device with llama.cpp compiled to webassembly (aka wllama) and running SmolLM2-360M. [1] How is this different from the user clicking on the link? In the end, your local firefox will fetch the link in order to summarize it, the same way you would have followed the link and read through the document in reader mode.

That’s awesome :-)

Like, can we all take a step back and marvel that freaking wasm can do things that 10 years ago were firmly in the realm of sci-fi?

I hope they’ll extend that sort of thing to help filter out the parts of the dom that represent attention grabbing stuff that isn’t quite an ad, but is still off topic/not useful for what I’m working on at the moment (and still keep the relevant links).

I actually didnt know it was using a local model and that it fetches it locally.

They should advertise that. I pretty much reflexively avoid any mention of AI in interfaces because they usually mean "we're sending this all to openthropigoogosoft so I hope you don't have any secrets."
