| 2 | +### The AI-Native Operating System |
| 3 | + |
| 4 | +**Linux that understands you. No documentation required.** |
| 5 | +```bash |
| 6 | +$ cortex install oracle-23-ai --optimize-gpu |
| 7 | +🧠 Analyzing system: NVIDIA RTX 4090 detected |
| 8 | + Installing CUDA 12.3 + dependencies |
| 9 | + Configuring Oracle for GPU acceleration |
| 10 | + Running validation tests |
| 11 | +✅ Oracle 23 AI ready at localhost:1521 (4m 23s) |
| 12 | +``` |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +## The Problem |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +Installing complex software on Linux is broken: |
| 17 | +- 47 Stack Overflow tabs to install CUDA drivers |
| 18 | +- Dependency hell that wastes days |
| 19 | +- Configuration files written in ancient runes |
| 20 | +- "Works on my machine" syndrome |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +**Developers spend 30% of their time fighting the OS instead of building.** |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +## The Solution |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +Cortex Linux embeds AI at the operating system level. Tell it what you need in plain English—it handles everything: |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +- **Natural language commands** → System understands intent |
| 29 | +- **Hardware-aware optimization** → Automatically configures for your GPU/CPU |
| 30 | +- **Self-healing configuration** → Fixes broken dependencies automatically |
| 31 | +- **Enterprise-grade security** → AI actions are sandboxed and validated |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +## Status: Early Development |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +**Seeking contributors.** If you've ever spent 6 hours debugging a failed apt install, this project is for you. |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +## Current Roadmap |
| 38 | + |
