Seems Interesting. I hope this will also be a local feature and not dependent on a cloud service but since the Company behind this is using some AI and ML I doubt that it will run on the computer especially since firefox is known to run on basically anything

With Firefox' recent addition of "offline" translations I wouldn't rule out that they'll run this locally as well.

Not sure whether that's a more complex model though.

I know about that, and I love that it runs locally. I just hope that they will keep this mindset, I would love to have such tool available at all times Edit: Personally I also agree its a bit weird that it will be a native feature, maybe an official extension would be more adequate
