Not quite yet, but that is likely the future, but more likely with human direction, supervision and involvement. Grok is also a good fit for at least some parts of this project as it has unique skills at optimizing some things this project uses. It will probably be quite some time before AI can completely replace humans on large complex projects like this and even then humans will most likely have unique skills at pushing projects to the maturity that other humans expect. Open source and Linux as a whole has gained more momentum and as the user base grows so does the pool of people needed to support it. That and when AI replaces developers they won't have anything better to do than help develop free software because they can't afford to buy it anymore. The last part is a joke, I hope. 😉 Reply

Windows isn't going anywhere Windows can also brick computers and generally make things worse with updates. I think you're alluding to Linux dependency hell and other packaging related problems though. Reply

Windows isn't going anywhere You mean Windows is pain to setup and use 🙂 : does not live well with other OSes, forces spyware, forces MS accounts, does not allow even simple changes without explanation (i. e. try to increase boot partition size during setup – it will succeed, but the system will not boot), forces Bitlocker without proper saving of the keys, forces OneDrive, destroys shared drives in fast boot mode, etc. As for updates look on the forums for people that bricked their system because power went out during an update – the only remedy is usually complete reinstall. Linux on the other hand is build like a brick: I accidentally pulled the cord out during OS upgrade and my laptop run out of juice. It didn't boot, but it took me ~20 minutes to boot from one of the live images I had around and complete the upgrade successfully. Reply
