yea, you don't want 'ai' in your firefox.
so? don't install it.
it's an addon. you don't have it if you don't go and get it.

What I don't like is that money and effort were spent on developing it instead of other things.

Yeah but honestly this seems pretty neat. As an avid reader this is one of the last things I need for text, but having videos (which take forever to bring ridiculously little content across due to their nature, and most modern "creator" videos are just talking head shots) summarized as short text to read near-instantly fixes a big problem with the way content is dumbed down for modern audiences.
Is it weird to use a software to create that text summary instead of just having the original creator post their 2 minutes of actual content as text? Sure. Better than not having it available, though.
After trying it a few more times now that it's in beta, functionality is very good, I just wish it were integrated into the AI sidebar they're also working on instead of having its own floating button. minor issue of course.

Let’s hope it stays an “add on”.

I'm not mad that Mozilla decided to create a chatbot - especially since it's an optional add-on.
But it doesn't at all seem clear what the difference is between this and the countless other LLMs that are already available. I think they would have been better served working on other product features instead.
