Microsoft has Copilot Plus PCs loaded with AI, and rumors are that Apple is all in on AI, too, but if you don't want AI in everything you do, there is another option: Linux.
There is also nothing stopping you from creating your own distribution that has whatever features you want. Linux provides it’s users with infite choices while on Windows a lot of those choices are made for you. Because linux is developed by users it often lags behind in some features, I predict we will see more AI integrated distributions pop up. There is a general distrust of Microsoft with this rollout, how many Microsoft programs do you close out of only to find it still running in the background? I haven’t tried recal or windows 11 yet but I’d be concerned with my job (announced the switch to 11 starting next month) suddenly using it as a way to start monitoring employees because now the feature is “built in”.

The non-existence of those features stops me.
…yes, you’d have to make those features yourself. There’s nothing stopping you… except a lack of knowledge.
You can make those features on Windows too, there’s nothing unique about Linux in that regard.
