Yeah, offline translation is great, and my eyesight is definitely on its way out. If I could have a locally-run AI in Firefox that I can use to get a description of images, that would be amazing

People see the sleazy shit that MS, Google, and "Open"AI are doing with AI and jump to the conclusion that it's evil and useless and we shouldn't have it at all for any use-case.

As far as I'm concerned, as long as it's open source, the training data was obtained ethically, and it doesn't hoover up my data, AI is a tool we should use.
