3 months agoThey are not entirely wrong for not trusting them though. I have broken more than one Ubuntu installs… and I consider myself a semi-advanced user.
If more windows people join and Ubuntu wants to keep them, they need protection from doing stupid things like uninstalling all display and graphics drivers or system critical packages…
Don’t underestimate people’s stupidity, at least that something that Microsoft and apple get right.
Ironically, this is probably the way it is going to go. As we keep going deeper into the information age, managing all the information thrown at us is becoming unmanageable. With the introduction of AI it will get worse, even as AI becomes the only way of handling the influx of information. Using machine learning has been a way to sort information for a long time (spam sorting is a type of AI after all) and present generative AI are an evolution of that.
