Subject: RE: Chrome silently installs a 4 GB local LLM on your computer


Milford, IL
Broken record alert. I have been hammering on the benefits of not using Edge or Chrome for some time.

Firefox, Brave, vanilla Chromium are all capable browsers that don't routinely do insane things like M$ or Google.

As an aside, 4 GB is a fair bit of space to borrow without consent. I expect if you track down and delete that 4GB file and create your own file with that same weights.bin file name - surely Google wouldn't go as far as to overwrite a user created file right?!? Create a blank .pdf or .txt file and alter the file name to .bin and hope Google will leave you alone?
