LibreOffice says no AI by default, for now
What happened
On October 6, TechCrunch reported that The Document Foundation, which makes LibreOffice, will not add AI to the default install for the foreseeable future and treats "no AI" as a software feature. The design stance keeps documents from being uploaded to a server and lets every part of the suite run without a network connection. The foundation has not ruled out AI entirely: users can still connect local AI models through extensions. No integration so far meets the requirements of keeping data on the device and not depending on a single AI provider, so it stays out of the default build.

LibreOffice 背后的 The Document Foundation 表示，在可预见的未来不会向软件默认安装中加入 AI。该组织将此作为明确的设计立场，以确保文档不被上传到服务器处理，且软件各部分无需网络连接即可运行。用户仍可通过扩展连接本地 AI 模型；该组织并未彻底拒绝 AI，但目前没有集成方案满足数据留在设备上、不依赖单一 AI 提供商等要求。
