Ubuntu is adding AI features this year, Canonical planning to make it a 'context aware' OS primed for agentic workflows. https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2026/04/ubuntu-ai-features?v1 #Ubuntu

    @omgubuntu@floss.social Time for Mint to make LMDE the flagship distro me thinks.

  • @omgubuntu@floss.social So probably no need to ever upgrade after 26.04 LTS. But that version will be good for years to come (at least for me).

    @xejt@linuxrocks.online @omgubuntu@floss.social AI may be useful for some, but OS-wide integration is a big overkill.

    @omgubuntu@floss.social snatching defeat from the jaws of victory yet again. I’ve given canonical the benefit of the doubt for years but this one is way too far.

    @omgubuntu@floss.social I have personally found some AI to be helpful as long as used responsibly. I think giving them the benefit of the doubt or at least enough room to hang themselves is fair. It sounds like they are trying to sensibly offer a set of tools and framework to help stay relevant. Microsoft users got Copilot (whether they wanted it or not) so if Canonical, really any distro, hopes to be an attractive choice when considering a switch from Windows, AI will factor into that choice.
