Keynote: From AI Runtime to System Agents: Reimagining Linux for the AI Era with openKylin - Qingbo Wu, openKylin Advisory Committee Member & Technical Committee Chair

Thursday October 8, 2026 09:25 - 09:35 CEST

Congress Hall (Floor 2)

As on-device foundation models, AI PCs and agentic applications converge, AI is evolving from an application-layer capability into a foundational service increasingly embedded within the operating system. For Linux distributions, the challenge is no longer simply hosting models, but providing reusable AI infrastructure that bridges model capabilities with real system functions.

openKylin is exploring this shift from "AI on OS" to "AI for OS". Its AI subsystem provides a unified runtime, inference services and developer interfaces, while a system-level agent framework exposes operating system capabilities as structured, verifiable tools, enabling bounded and auditable interactions with the desktop.
This session shares openKylin's architectural approach to operating systems in the age of AI, covering heterogeneous models and hardware support, abstraction of OS services into agent-accessible tools, and mechanisms for trustworthy execution through least-privilege design, policy enforcement and auditability. It also examines how Linux distributions may evolve beyond traditional software platforms into open, trusted and extensible foundations for intelligent computing.
