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.

I don't know if you read the article, but in there it says AI is becoming smarter. My comment was a response to that.

Irrespective of that, you raise an interesting point "it's about the impact AI has on the world". I'd argue it's real impact is quite limited (mind you I'm referring to generative AI and specifically LLMs rather than AI generally), it has a few useful applucations, but the emphasis here is on few. However, it's being pushed by all the big tech companies and those lobbying for them as the next big thing. That's what's really leading to the "impact" you're perceiving.
