[AI integration is coming to Firefox](https://news.itsfoss.com/firefox-ai-integration/?ref=itsfoss.com). Don't get outraged yet if you are not a fan of AI creeping up in every software. It's optional and has several choices available for both local and cloud-based AI. 

As I have said earlier, sooner or later, more applications will see the option of AI integration. It's just the beginning.

**💬 Let's see what else you get in this edition:**

- Exploring the tiling window feature in Ubuntu 24.04
- Pocket computer running Linux
- Interview with the founder of Bitwarden
- And other Linux news, videos and, of course, memes!
