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.

The people

We want AI to automate shitty tasks like finding obscure files, grammar checking, generating 1 time use charts/reports, and translating mails.

AI and Software companies

we can give you AI that barely works at all for the asked tasks with tons of mistakes, but spies on your every move and reports it to your power tripping boss, your insurance company, your social credit score, financial institutions, and techno fascists.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
