Chrome looks set to ship an LLM Prompt API to the web platform. At Mozilla, we oppose this API. We feel it has a large interoperability risk, and Google imposing T&Cs on a web API sets a dangerous precedent. Full details: github.com/mozilla/stan...

1. "Calcifying around a single model". Make it pluggable like search. 2. "To use the prompt API you must acknowledge Google's Generative AI Prohibited Uses Policy.". Yeah that's very bad. 3. "Overstated web developer position". Come on. Let's not create another iPhone moment for the web.

I'm curious what do you mean around point 3? I think it's good to point out that the bar for what some consider (or pretend to consider) as strong support, differs *a lot*. The issue with making the model pluggable is that sites might still design around a specific model that then can't be swapped

Seems to me a lot of this is solved if somehow the developer can plug the model in a standard way. Use what the browser provides, or plug your own. Unsure what that would actually look like though.
