Mozilla is expressing strong opposition to Google's implementation of a Prompt API in the Chrome and Edge browsers, which allows web pages to interact directly with local machine learning models like Gemini Nano. The organization warns that this integration could undermine web interoperability and neutrality by forcing developers to optimize for specific vendor models and adhere to proprietary content policies.
Main points:
- Risk of creating model-specific code paths that harm browser compatibility.
- Concerns regarding the imposition of vendor-specific usage rules on an open platform.
- Disagreement over whether there is a genuine groundswell of developer support for the API.
