Google has decided to pause the rollout of its AI-based search features in Google Photos due to user feedback and concerns regarding privacy and data security. The company aims to refine the technology and address these issues before proceeding with its implementation.

Mozilla is developing a new feature for Firefox that will display direct search results in the address bar as users type, allowing them to bypass traditional search engine results pages. This approach enhances user privacy by encrypting queries and ensures that no single party can link a user's search to their identity. The feature is currently in testing and will be rolled out gradually, starting in the United States.
