State of Mozilla 2024
Evolving Together: Redefining Mozilla in the AI Era
Mozilla stands for putting people and communities in control of how technology shows up in their lives. In 1998, that meant taking the web in a better direction. In 2024, it means doing the same for AI, and making sure that open source wins again in the AI era.
Why? Because data and AI have become fundamental building blocks with which we create the digital tools we all use everyday. And, as it was with the web 25 years ago, whoever controls these building blocks — and how they work — has a tremendous impact on our agency, our relationships, and our lives.
