Can't find a single distro that proudly advertises "NO AI" (thelemmy.club)

I'm intent on getting rid of Ubuntu since their embrace of AI, and would prefer to avoid any other distro based on Ubuntu, since that's just kicking the can down the road.

But a thorough search of the web for various versions of "Linux with no AI" only returns results that recommend AI infused distros and articles touting how great AI will be for Linux, or how to fix Linux using AI. 🤮

Can anyone recommend a distro that has proudly announced their refusal to ever consider adding #AIslop to their distro?
