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.

They're decent for text completion purposes, e.g. generating some corpspeak for an email, or generating some "wikipedia"-like text. You have to know how to write good prompts, don't try to treat it like ChatGPT.
For example if i want to know about the history of Puerto Rico I would put:
"The history of puerto rico starts in about 480BC when"
