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 one got banned from an anti ai com for mentioning video game npc ai.
There's obviously a huge difference there. Video game NPC AI is closer to a complex flowchart than to genAI, at least traditionally - who knows what's coming in the near future.
I'm not sure if you were being unreasonable by drawing the comparison (or by using the false comparison to intentionally instigate) or if they were being unreasonable by equating the two and banning you, but someone was.
If i recall it was as an example of how “ai” can be more then just llm chatbots. I thought the com was specifically against llms but they didn’t like general machine learning either.
Long time ago though.
