Misleading title (the one on the news article): Firefox added multiple chatbots, and only on nightlies.

Does this have to be built in to the browser? Why not just make it a recommended extension?

pretty much the only reason for it to be built in is for browser.tabs.groups.smart.enabled to be set to true.

That groups feature doesn't depend on the sidebar, it uses a local ai

i meant the reason for the entirety of ai being built in.
