Linux doesn’t deserve this

Imagine taking the lightweight, privacy-focused appeal of Linux and completely ruining it by hardwiring AI models straight into the OS. Nobody is switching from Windows for more forced AI features.

    Arguably even worse. The kernel is Linux (99% human made), the desktop is probably based on something existing (probably 50% human made), but you can’t actually do anything. AI is integrated into everything. Think Windows but worse, somehow. Probably with less telemetry, at least! If the LLM is on-device, which it probably isn’t. It’s probably connected straight to ChatGPT APIs

      This is funny to me because I highly doubt the LLM runs locally, which means the OS because becomes unusable if there’s no internet.

      Edit: spelling

        If it has local LLMs and other models it is gonna have gigantic minimum requirements.

      At the current state, I would say its way more than 99% human made. Probably like 99.99% human made, and the 0.01% generated by Ai is checked by the Linux experts, so no slop comes through.

      Damn, the antithesis to Hanna Montana OS.

      You get the worst, of both worlds
