Firefox starts letting you use AI chatbots in the sidebar


Mozilla is bringing AI chatbots to the Firefox sidebar, but they're entirely optional.

Starting this week, you'll be able to add ChatGPT, Google Gemini, HuggingChat or Le Chat Mistral to the sidebar. Highlight some text on the web and you can right click to ask your preferred chatbot to summarize the information, simplify the language or test your memory and knowledge of the excerpt. If you'd like to try one in Firefox, you'll need the experimental Nightly version of the browser (note that Mozilla describes this as a "unstable testing and development platform," so exercise caution).
