From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

It requires powerful gpus yes but not always. It depends a lot on how fast you want it to run. Microsoft and openai need powerful ai gpus because they have a lot of requests, data and want it to go fast. The dataset may also require to be stored in memory or gpu memory for fast access and use by the ai.
For Llama, it has been released as open source. And what is amazing about open source, is the community. A Llama entirely in c++ has been created https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp .
And someone even managed to make it run, fast enough, on a phone with 8gb of available ram https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/discussions/750 . Tho with a smaller dataset.
