Perplexity AI Search in Firefox

On desktop, Firefox now includes Perplexity, an AI-powered answer engine built into the browser. Perplexity delivers direct, conversational answers to complex questions, helping you get quick summaries, accurate references, or creative inspiration without digging through multiple sources. It’s rolling out worldwide from the address bar via the unified search button.

        They are literally advertising ai slop search as a service that gives you complex, accurate answers.

        But OK I guess ai slop is a historical achievement and not the result of an out of touch management who are creatively and technically bankrupt and have been declining for years, amassing a googles worth of dead projects and defunct ideas.

        Mozilla Firefox is a google subsidiary that exists to prevent anti trust lawsuits.

          The flagship browsers of both other web rendering engines have some kind of ai search option built into them. At the very least feature parity recommends having the option.

          The description you reference is how perplexity advertises itself. It’s the ai web search company in its own words.
