Firefox's Smart Window is an AI browsing feature that pulls information from a user's browsing history and current web content, displaying source links alongside responses.

The feature remains an opt-in beta with no set release date, and Mozilla has built in controls allowing users to enable or disable individual AI features rather than forcing adoption of all AI capabilities.
