Windows? Linux? PC? WTF has this to do with AI?

A naturally intelligent system will use lots of massively parallel
hardware, because a primate brain is not a particularly idle place. An AI
platform will be thinkably (tee-hee) far removed from a PC, and it most
assuredly won't run any OS, if it would at all make a difference between
data and code.
