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.

Well, it seems a lot of major distributions include AI tooling. Arch included 😉

As long as they are opt-in as in packages that can be installed optionally that’s fine. The day a distro has AI tooling embedded, then I can actively opt-out from the distro.

Not to mention people can fork said distro and remove the AI tooling themselves.

Such is the beauty of open source.

Not to mention that almost all model development is done on Linux as I have understood it, so there will definitely exist packages for those that want them.
