Ai can't hurt you unless you willingly engage with the services and software where they exist
... like Windows, or Office, or Google docs, or Search, or Gmail, or Facebook, Tiktok, Instagram, YouTube and all the others...
Yes, good job.
Edit most of those are easy discards, no replacement needed. the rest can be containerized or replaces with an open source alternative.
Edit edit I'm not disagreeing that Linux provides the OS framework to suffice the avoidance ofany of those things you listed.
Yea well while I successfully live without most of them - like you say some don't need replacement at all - I find it hard to avoid them all. Some are hard to replace, some are forced on me.
edit: without most of them!
Acknowledged. All I'm pointing out originally was that ai involvement in ones life is based on the services you consume.
It's our consumption and habits and lifestyle that dictate our ai engagement.
