He says that now we are in the mainframe phase. We will hit the personal computing phase hopefully soon. He says llama (and DeepSeek?) are like Linux in a way, OpenAI and Claude are like Windows and MacOS.

So, No, he’s actually saying it may be everywhere for cheap soon.

I find the talk to be refreshingly intellectually honest and unbiased. Like the opposite of a cringey LinkedIn post on AI.

Being Linux is not a good thing imo, it took decades for tech like proton to run Windows games reliably, if not better as now, than Windows does. Software is still mostly develop for Windows and macOS. Not to mention the Linux Desktop that never took off, I mean one could mention Android but there is a large corporation behind it. Sure Linux is successfull in many ways, it's embedded everywhere but nowhere near being the OS of the everyday people, "traditional linux desktop" never took off

You mention consumer stuff, but Linux runs the world. In numbers it's more like insects vs human than any "fair balance". You probably have more Linux machines serving you than Windows or MacOS/iOS machine at any given time.
