New AI controls are coming to the Firefox browser, the Mozilla Corporation has announced — including the ability to turn off generative AI features entirely.

The open-source Firefox, in other words, has created what users overwhelmed by AI slop and hallucinations have been waiting for: the ability to totally turn off generative AI features.

"Mozilla’s approach to AI is grounded in the same principles that have long defined Firefox: real user choice and control," said Ajit Varma, Head of Firefox, in an email statement to Mashable. "At a time when much of the industry is moving toward closed, AI-driven ecosystems, we’re taking a different path, one that puts people, not platforms, in charge."

In a blog post announcing the update, the non-profit-owned tech company details how AI controls will give Firefox users the ability to "block current and future generative AI features." Users who want to block all generative AI features will also be able to toggle a setting called "Block AI enhancements."

The new AI controls will go into effect on Feb. 24 with the introduction of Firefox 148.

In a statement to Mashable, Varma said the AI controls feature was inspired by user feedback:

We’ve heard clearly from our users: some who don’t want AI, while others want the ability to decide exactly how and when it shows up in their browser. AI controls are how we deliver on that commitment. With these controls, users can choose whether to use AI-enhanced features in Firefox or block them entirely and stay in control as new AI capabilities are introduced over time.

Like it or not, we're still very much living in the ChatGPT era. As AI superfans embrace all things generative AI, many AI critics and skeptics are growing tired of the endless AI integrations. Tech giants like Samsung, Google, and Microsoft are integrating AI features into every facet of online life.

Laptops and PCs now come with Copilot pre-installed. Google has integrated AI overviews and AI Mode into its search tool and Gemini into Chrome. The latest mobile phones from Samsung are now "AI smartphones," with a full suite of generative AI features. Samsung is even putting AI in washing machines, TVs, and refrigerators, leaving no device untouched.

For users who want less artificial intelligence — or even, gasp, no artificial intelligence — the technology is increasingly difficult to avoid. For instance, there's no way to fully remove the AI assistant Copilot from Windows laptops.

But Firefox users will be able to control individual AI settings, including:

• Translations

• Alt text in PDFs

• AI-enhanced tab grouping

• Link previews

• AI chatbot in the sidebar

Mozilla also released a video showing how AI controls will work.

UPDATE: Feb. 3, 2026, 2:34 p.m. EST This article has been updated with a statement from Ajit Varma, Head of Firefox, sent to Mashable by email.

Elon Musk, the world's richest man, just combined his companies SpaceX and xAI, creating the most valuable privately-owned company in the world.

The reason? In a statement posted on SpaceX's website after the news broke on Monday, Musk said that the electricity demand for AI was too much and, in the long term, AI data centers will need to operate in space. Days before SpaceX acquired xAI (creating a company valued at an estimated $1.25 trillion), the company had already submitted filings to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) seeking permission to launch satellites that would operate as AI data centers in space.

But, is that really why SpaceX bought xAI?

While Musk may genuinely want to build AI data centers that orbit the Earth, some experts are skeptical that's the real reason for the merger. Tim Farris, the president of satellite and telecom industry research firm TMF Associates, called Musk's space data center plan "a Rorschach test for potential SpaceX investors, just like Optimus does for Tesla investors," in a post on the group's website.

"Both allow for near term demonstrations that look impressive but aren’t meaningfully revenue-generating, while allowing Musk to make long term projections of 'infinite' revenues that can be (nearly) infinitely postponed," Farris writes.

As experts point out, a merger allows the companies to pool their resources to help with their bottom line.

SpaceX is reportedly planning an IPO later this year, which could raise up to $60 billion at a $1.5 trillion valuation. 

Starlink, Musk's satellite internet service under the SpaceX umbrella, is the main revenue driver for the company. However, Farris points out that there are only so many rockets available to launch more satellites into space. 

If SpaceX is not spending on Starlink, what should SpaceX do with those billions? Musk's AI company xAI, on the other hand, needs money badly. Bloomberg recently reported that xAI, along with its AI chatbot Grok, is burning $1 billion every month as the AI arms race with OpenAI, Google, and Meta heats up.

But, as Farris mentions to CNBC, xAI provides SpaceX with a bonus as well. Despite xAI's money problem, AI is a hot investment trend right now, and potential investors looking to get involved could be wooed by the prospect of investing in Musk's AI company via a SpaceX IPO. This may be more of a draw for some investors, as SpaceX itself has consistently missed its revenue projections.

So, Musk might be saying AI data centers in space are the reason for the acquisition, but the deal could also give both SpaceX and xAI a boost.

Netflix's intense and unique extreme climbing extravaganza Skyscraper Live has been a big success for the streamer, attracting a reported 6.2 million views and currently sitting at No. 2 on the Netflix U.S. Top 10. The stakes were high, as the world's most famous free solo climber, Alex Honnold, Spider-Manned his way up the 1,667-foot Taipei 101 skyscraper, one of the world's tallest buildings—no ropes, no safety harness, no nothing.

Solid-state drives, especially NVMe drives, have become ubiquitous in newer builds because of their convenient size, blazing fast transfer speeds, and cost. If you're shopping for a drive, you may be tempted to try and "future-proof" your SSD, but you shouldn't. There are better ways to spend your money.

On the run from the FBI and a notorious crime boss, Lucky will have to use all her wiles if she's going to survive.

Who's in Lucky?

In addition to Taylor-Joy, Lucky features an all-star ensemble of Annette Bening, Timothy Olyphant, Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor, Drew Starkey, Clifton Collins, Jr., and William Fichtner.

Based on the best-selling novel of the same name by Marissa Stapley, Lucky introduces grifter Lucky Armstrong (Taylor-Joy). After a heist worth millions goes awry, she's forced to go on the run. But with the FBI and a ruthless crime boss on her heels, how long is it before Lucky's luck runs out?

Lucky's first-look teaser promises criminal chaos on a major scale, with Lucky getting trapped under dead bodies and setting the occasional fire. As one character asks in the teaser, "How can someone so small cause so much trouble?"

According to Lucky, that trouble is the result of a series of bad decisions that have compounded over time. We're looking forward to learning just what, exactly, those decisions were.

In addition to Taylor-Joy, Lucky also stars Annette Bening, Timothy Olyphant, Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor, Drew Starkey, Clifton Collins, Jr., and William Fichtner.

Grindr is testing a new premium tier that could cost up to $499 per month, Business Insider reported.

The new EDGE membership will be powered by Grindr's proprietary AI stack, "gAI," according to a blog post by the app's chief product officer, AJ Balance.

SEE ALSO: Grindr beefs up safety features for 2026 Winter Olympics

"Grindr is becoming an AI-first company," Balance wrote. "EDGE is designed for users who want a more efficient, higher-signal experience — less scrolling, better conversations, and stronger follow-through."

EDGE features include:

• A-List, which the blog describes as "a recap of meaningful chats and missed connections." When Grindr spoke to Mashable in 2025 about the A-List beta, the company described it as profile and chat summaries, as well as a short list of best matches.

• Discover: personalized profile recommendations

• Profile Insights: compatibility data and some other context, like how often they respond and when they're active

Grindr has been testing EDGE in Australia and New Zealand, and it's now expanding the pilot to Canada and some U.S. cities. Because EDGE is an experiment, users may see different prices, the blog post states.

On X, multiple posts show the EDGE price as $219.99 for one week or $349.99 for one month. Online reports show the price ranging from $349.99 to $499.99 per month, according to Business Insider.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

AI-powered features can be turned off in the app's Privacy Settings (though, if you're paying $220 a week for AI features, you probably won't).

Existing subscription tiers (Grindr XTRA, $22.99/month, and Unlimited, $44.99/month, per the App Store) are unchanged.

In the sea of TV deals live in honor of the Seahawks vs. Patriots showdown this weekend, one of Best Buy's TV promos stands out with more than a flat discount.

Not only are several Samsung Neo QLED 8K TVs from 2024 and 2025 already discounted by $1,000+ themselves, but buying one will also get you a free 50-inch Samsung U7900 4K TV (a $299.99 value). If you're already looking for a premium model to upgrade your living room TV, why not upgrade your bedroom TV or garage TV for free while you're at it?

Sizes on sale range from 65 to 100 inches, and discounts range from 20% to about 34% off. The best deal (the one with the biggest price cut percentage-wise) is the 85-inch Samsung QN900D Neo QLED 8K TV on sale for $3,999.99. That's $2,000 off its usual $5,999.99.

Do you necessarily need an 8K TV right now? Not exactly. There's still not a ton of 8K content out there to even take advantage of an 8K TV's incredible resolution. Being on the expensive side, 8K TVs are a bit of a hard sell at full price. But when they're seeing sale prices like what Best Buy is offering here today, they're a steal. A premium Samsung Neo QLED is still a premium Samsung Neo QLED in all its glory. The Samsung QN900D and QN900F series are exceptionally bright with sensational glare handling, and the mini LED backlight provides quite rich contrast for a non-OLED TV. (Need a refresher on TV specs? Read my super straightforward breakdown.)

This type of free TV promo is quintessential clearing house that we see from the big retailers every winter. The cycle kicks off at CES in early January, when the big brands unveil their 2026 TV lineups. But most of those announced flagship TVs don't actually become available for sale until March or April, leaving February as the key month to downsize stock of last year's TVs. The timing just happens to line up perfectly with the biggest football game of the year.

P.S. The Seahawks vs. Patriots game will be streaming on Peacock. You can sign up for a 30-day free trial of Walmart+ and get a free month of Peacock. That'll also cover the Olympics for you.

The latest trailer for Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2 shows us this living cataclysm in action. Rocking a glowing blue and red color scheme and some massive tentacles, Titan X sinks boats all by itself and terrorizes humanity in the process. Plus, it seems like the other monsters worship it as a deity. In the face of all this monstrous power, what are Earth's puny humans to do?

According to the trailer, they'll try to pit both King Kong and Godzilla against Titan X. When has playing God like that gone wrong before?

Monarch: Legacy of Monsters will continue using Season 1's dual timeline format, with father-son duo Wyatt and Kurt Russell playing Army officer Lee Shaw in the 1950s and 2015. This time around, our heroes are headed to Kong's Skull Island. Get ready for some serious monster mayhem.

Monarch: Legacy of Monsters also stars Anna Sawai, Kiersey Clemons, Ren Watabe, Mari Yamamoto, Joe Tippett, Anders Holm, Takehiro Hira, Amber Midthunder, Curtiss Cook, Cliff Curtis, Dominique Tipper, and Camilo Jiménez Varón.

What's Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2 about?

Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2 continues to examine the rise of Monarch, a scientific organization dedicated to the study of Titans like Godzilla and King Kong. In Season 2, a new Titan is on the loose: Titan X. If you thought Godzilla and Kong were trouble, apparently Titan X is even worse. Described in an Apple TV press release as "a living calamity," this bioluminescent, aquatic monster could be Earth's greatest threat yet.

Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2 will head to Skull Island, bringing the show right to King Kong's doorstep. It will also keep up with Season 1's multiple timelines, swapping between the 1950s and 2015, with father-son duo Kurt and Wyatt Russell playing Army officer Lee Shaw across timelines.

Who is in Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2?

Both Kurt and Wyatt Russell are returning for Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2, along with Season 1 main cast Anna Sawai, Kiersey Clemons, Ren Watabe, Mari Yamamoto, Joe Tippett, and Anders Holm.

Companies like Apple, Samsung, and Google release new flagship phones every year, but if you're tired of the relentless upgrade cycle, you might want to keep an eye on Nothing.

The U.K.-based tech startup that's made its name over the past few years with distinctive-looking, affordable Android phones allegedly has a new one coming out very soon. Leaker Yogesh Brar (via Android Authority) posted on X that the Nothing Phone 4a and 4a Pro models will launch on March 5. The same post indicated that the phones will have upgraded storage, a slight jump in battery capacity, new Snapdragon chips, and a higher price from the Phone 3a, which starts at $379.

SEE ALSO: Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold Phone quickly sells out online despite near $3,000 pricetag This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

The name "Phone 4a" would sort of imply that this is a mid-range take on the Phone 4. The only problem with that assumption is that there isn't a Nothing Phone 4. Company CEO Carl Pei recently confirmed the firm is taking a year off of doing a major flagship release, so it seems like the more budget-friendly Phone 4a models are all we're getting in 2026.

In other words, if the annual race to the top from the other companies is exhausting to you and you need a new Android handset, maybe the Nothing Phone 4a is worth a look.
