As there seems to have been recent confusion about this, just a quick "official" toot to then pin: we haven't and won't support "generative AI" related stuff in LibreWolf. If you see some features like that (like Perplexity search recently, or the link preview feature now) it is solely because it "slipped through". As soon as we become aware of something like this / it gets reported to us, we will remove/disable it ASAP.

@librewolf How does it slip through? I am not a programer but it seems like a security issue if functional codes can be injected without you knowing. What else has slipped through?
@Microplastics101 we don't audit the full codebase / (or rather: changes to the upstream codebase) on each release, as that would be more or less an impossible task. We still work on the assumption that upstream (Mozilla) code is, in general, benign, and not trying to hide exploits/backdoors/whatever, and that the things that _might_ slip through (like this) are not good, but not something opening up serious attack vectors, for example.
@librewolf Phew! Thank you!! 🙏
