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.

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.

Lol strong contender for that title

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

Exact opposite. KORA with Cortex is local first by default where “local” can be an on-machine LLM and / or ones that located on the same local network. So it’s Hybrid with local first and the added party trick that you can tap an LLM on another machine that is also running Cortex.

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

Damn, the antithesis to Hanna Montana OS.

You get the worst, of both worlds

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.
