I know of AerynOS and Chimera Linux but AerynOS still in alpha and have suffered a few issues with Kwin and I am just not technical or dedicated enough to setup something like Chimera Linux.

I know some might say this is a losing battle and you can never 100% sure of something did not use AI but I try my best to find things that promise no AI, plus, I want to support some of them monetarily so they continue getting developed.

Maybe also being into gaming does not help my case T-T

Elementary OS fits the bill, it has a low barrier of entry for you, they won't use AI personally. However, the problem with how AI is that it is also being used to write changes to the Linux Kernel, and those changes aren't being flagged anymore (because Linus lost his goddamn mind). So it will be harder to escape the influence of AI through just a distro change.

At least, Elementary OS can promise that anything they made is going to be hand coded and not sloppy AF. They are a good one to put money towards and support, easy breezy to use and their community is friendly!

    Yeah, the guy who invented Linux and has maintained the kernel for 35-years is too stupid to review AI changes. 🙄

    I get the AI hate, I really do, but some y'all over the top. This whole post is silly, like a distro with AI assisted code is going to give OP the cooties.

    Henny, listen, this man did one of the first LLM-assisted patch series on the Kernel. It went bad...Instead of fixing it himself, he dumped that shit on another maintainer and went on vacation. Can you see why I might be a man of little faith? Like, the LLM psychosis is getting him too, it is time he is either retired by force or willingly. His presence is going to do more harm.
