I'd guess it's for the same reasons why we can't have a local account

it’s safe to assume that the company isn’t interested in pouring its engineering resources into pursuing something that won’t benefit a majority of users

I mean, they could just let their awesome Copilot vibe code it, couldn't they? Another reasons why I love being on Linux; you can do whatever even it it doesn't make sense to the majority of users.

Like half of open source is just devs trying to satisfy their very specific needs

If they could do math, they'd know that you should fit every decision for all users you can think about, not the majority. Because the majority is different for every dimension, and if you choose a different strategy, your end result won't be usable for anyone.

This is one of the best proofs that the AI industry is full of bullshit. If we can let the AI code everything now, where are our leaps in traditional, existing software?

AI is very good at writing code but it's not good code.

Even if it will brick your system.

Every copy on Linux is personalised. Most are on the brink of collapse.
