It was the logo of Google Bard (now Gemini).

That’s an interesting connection.

The sparkle emoji is infamous for being associated with AI now.

Orion is a Kagi product, and Kagi is an AI company made to look like a search/browser/T-shirt company.

I have to assume a lot of people don’t understand how deep the AI rabbithole for Kagi goes, because I have seen people recommend Kagi to people frustrated with Google’s own AI bullshit… They’re launching AI features left and right, and they have fully bought into AI being the future of search.

Because companies make websites that only run on Chrome. They don’t test for Firefox. They don’t care.

Zuck: People just submitted it.

Zuck: I don’t know why.

Zuck: They “trust me”

Zuck: Dumb fucks

Replace Zuck with Google and it’s the same story.

Mozilla: Say hello to our biggest AI moments!

Yup, I’ve been saying for a while that Firefox should have better tools around using local data. There have been a lot of times where I wanted to find a link I visited, but gave up because the tooling sucks.
