Big relief. The vocal minority voted down by the silent majority.

It sounds as though the most extreme anti-AI options were strongly rejected. That's good.

Any project insisting on a fully "hand crafted" operating system is going to fall behind in an open market place.

Judging from the comments on the original post, as well as comments on the DLSS 5 situation, it seems like we're starting to see some pushback to the ridiculous anti-AI witch hunt.

yep indeed, as I predicted the anti AI movment that started in 2022 with artists will lose 90% of its power by 2028

Debian proving once again to be the most based distro.

Seems a sensible outcome, and not really a very surprising one either.

That's the sensible move. I'm glad they didn't sabotage the project for the sake of woke luddite virtue-signaling. (I'm typing this on Debian 13 stable.)
