   I am confused... it's not an OS, is it?

      This is not a traditional computer operating system. We use the term &quot;operating system&quot; in two senses:

      An operating system for the company to be productive with AI, in a way that is safe, so that the security team can sleep at night. An operating system for AI workloads, analogous to the sense in which a traditional operating system manages compute workloads.

         They have really twisted the definition to fit their marketing here. Operating systems are what allow you to use hardware to interact with software. Their product does nothing comparable to that at all.
