Whenever AI is mentioned lots of people in the Linux space immediately react negatively. Creators like TheLinuxExperiment on YouTube always feel the need to add a disclaimer that "some people think AI is problematic" or something along those lines if an AI topic is discussed. I get that AI has many problems but at the same time the potential it has is immense, especially as an assistant on personal computers (just look at what "Apple Intelligence" seems to be capable of.) Gnome and other desktops need to start working on integrating FOSS AI models so that we don't become obsolete. Using an AI-less desktop may be akin to hand copying books after the printing press revolution. If you think of specific problems it is better to point them out and try think of solutions, not reject the technology as a whole.
TLDR: A lot of ludite sentiments around AI in Linux community.
Good point about the imprecision. On the other hand most Linux desktop users are Normie's, think Steam deck and so on.
Some of the most popular Linux desktops are built for ordinary people with the KISS principle in mind. Not arch using tinkerers
I'm not saying nobody should work on this. There is obviously demand or at least big tech is assuming demand. I'm just saying it's not surprising to me a lot of Foss developers don't really care.
I used ubuntu until a few weeks ago, where I switched to Pop OS. In this sense, I might be close to the "normies". Yet, I am incredibly skeptical of AI.
It's distinct.
Jesus fuck what a statement. Your parents probably regret having you.
That's not the tone I like to read even as an answer to a statement I don't agree with. No need to get that personal.
YOU CAN'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO, YOU'RE NOT EVEN MY REAL DAD
You don't know that.
