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.
With some anti cheat - no. You cannot. LoL, Valorant, Apex Legends - all no go for me… But for everything else I play. No issues at all - infact a lot of games run better on Pop_os than they do on Windows.
Nvidia just requires a driver install on most distros, and the newer drivers for Linux run rather well. All but one of my games runs better on Linux than on Windows (MK1 has slowdown issues on cinematics)
FYI Helldivers 2 works fine on an ubuntu + AMD GPU, as well as Baldur’s Gate 3. Haven’t tested any other game yet.
Setup is trivial thanks to Steam and proton.

Battlebit also works fine and it uses easy anti cheat
Good to know! Thank you.
What about for Nvidia GPUs?

My 1080 was okay with Linux Mint, no complaints, and performance is the same from what I can tell. :)
