Chrome looks set to ship an LLM Prompt API to the web platform. At Mozilla, we oppose this API. We feel it has a large interoperability risk, and Google imposing T&Cs on a web API sets a dangerous precedent. Full details: github.com/mozilla/stan...

... and we already have the fetch API, which solves this very well today.

Exactly what I was going to say. LLMs are just one more service you might want to call. And just like any external service, you need exercise extreme caution in what you let it do to your JavaScript and DOM.

The difference here between fetch and the prompt API is that the Prompt API is running client side with a pre-fetched model. Big difference.

The Prompt API _may_ run client side. It's likely to run on the server for lower end devices, so it's privacy for the rich.

Provide an alternative proposal.

they aren’t obligated to..?

No they aren't! And I as a web developer am not obligated to support their browser.
