Summary

  • Mozilla’s Firefox browser is to get a new feature using AI to help users decide whether to click on a link or not
  • Called AI link previews, the tool generates a pop-up summary of the page when the user hovers over a link
  • This helps eliminate unnecessary clicks and reduces clutter from opening too many tabs
  • It can also be used to scan search engine results to determine which pages might be the most useful to open.
  • The tool is currently in the experimental Nightly builds stage, but should be rolled out more widely in the future.
  • It can be enabled by launching the Nightly browser, going to Settings, General or Experimental Features and toggling AI Link Previews to on, or manually by amending browser settings.
