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.

If that means an AI-assistant of sorts (like "that OS name that cannot be spoketh") I'm game.
Will that make some users freak out and make it sound like its doomsday, even if they implement a on/off toggle to the AI assistant? Probably.
An AI assistant has nothing to do with the kernel and will never be in it.
It's something for user space and can be done already. This is for the distro maintainers to decide.
What if AI will start contributing to the kernel end ends including AI there?
Then it's over. We can tear it all down and start new.
