@TheEntity it's fair to say I dislike things being attributed to me that I didn't say & aren't true.

@cobweb what details about the poll do you feel are incorrect, and how do you feel the incorrectness impacted the result?

@zzt @davidgerard @firefoxwebdevs and I didn't say I'm uncomfortable with the name, which is the claim that was put directly to me. I think it's reasonable to push back against that false claim.

@davidgerard @zzt @firefoxwebdevs It's telling that you can't admit that you (deliberately?) misrepresented me to stir outrage.

@zzt @davidgerard @firefoxwebdevs "note that Jake, in presenting the kill switch and calling it a kill switch and getting it into all the papers as a kill switch, says he's uncomfortable with the name" - I was called out by name directly and deliberately.

@davidgerard @mdavis @firefoxwebdevs I did not say I was personally uncomfortable with the term, because I am not personally uncomfortable with the term.

Please do not let your imagination run wild with this.

@davidgerard @mdavis @firefoxwebdevs in fact, someone internally questioned me using "kill switch" in the post above, and I defended it, saying that a lot of folks I chatted to liked and understood the name.

Whilst it might not make it into Release Firefox, I think it's the right term to use in these discussions in the meantime.

@davidgerard @mdavis @firefoxwebdevs I'm sure it'll ship with a less murderous name because folks internally have said that. I expressed no discomfort with the name personally. I used it again in the poll post. I clearly have no personal issue with using it.

@davidgerard @mdavis @firefoxwebdevs but I didn't say that. Get your words out of my mouth.

@RAOF @mage_of_dragons @cassidy @firefoxwebdevs the question was started clearly, yet 75% of respondents feel translation should be disabled by the switch. It doesn't seem like willful misinterpretation when the evidence is right there.

@sebastian which feature resulted in the ban? Given that you can access eg chatgpt in any browser, shouldn't your company ban all browsers?

@mxjaygrant what was it about this post that made you switch?

@ShadSterling @chillicampari @firefoxwebdevs @joepie91 translation is already opt-in. You're prompted about it, and the model is only downloaded if you say you want it.

@soupglasses I agree with your take here, but many people in the replies have a more fundamental dislike of 'AI'.

@davidgerard @mdavis @firefoxwebdevs where did I say I'm uncomfortable with the name "kill switch"?

@zzt @Fnordinger hey Mr Object. I'm sure there's a better source for this. If you know one, let us know.

@davidgerard @Fnordinger hah, I'm not sure. Do you know a better source? I just found one pretty quickly

@Fnordinger https://www.neuralconcept.com/post/ml-vs-llm-key-differences-applications-engineering-impact seems like a good overview
