I hear you brother. I, too, hope that one of the two or three companies will be able to improve and displace everything. Who needs Linux anyway.

Hope you are on the right side of the fence.

In the context of browsers the domination of one or two companies is already complete, and being able to generate new browsers with AI would hopefully allow people to escape the stranglehold of Chrome/Blink.

That said, I doubt a new,competitive browser could be created that way. The (possibly AI) developers of web apps won’t want to test on somebody’s bespoke AI-generated browser.


What does this have to do with Linux? I want more control for individuals, not less.

Do you really think LLMs will only belong to 2 or three companies in the future, when we already have fairly competitive open weights usable from home (or rented servers)? How would this be anything but the opposite of centralization amongst 2 or 3 companies, which is already the case now? Software has always been displacing things, especially itself.


I think you meant to respond to bergheim not to me.

Sorry, you’re right, I did.

But what are you writing about, LoL? Linux is just normal OS. Why did you mention Linux?
