Though, it's tough to pull from the headline/discussion this pivot is explicitly meant to refocus on the browser.

As far as the AI stuff goes, Mozilla has long been the most ethical player in this space. All of their datasets/models are open source and usually crowdsourced. Not to mention, their existing work is primarily in improving accessibility. It's really hard to see how this is a bad thing.
