Linux won on cost once it was "good enough". AI isn't free (by any definition of free) and is a long way away from "good enough" to be a general replacement for the status quo in a lot of domains.
The areas where it does make sense to use, it's been in use for years, if not longer, without anyone screaming from the rooftops about it.
By the time Linux won it was better - by 2003 you could take a workload that took eight hours on some ridiculous Sun machine and run it in 40 minutes on a Xeon box.
