There is a long tradition of this for Oracle DB naming. That "c" in 23c meant "cloud". Nothing about the DB 23c required it to installed or run in the cloud. That was in 2012 with DB 12c. Before that in 2003 it was "g" in DB 10g for "grid" (remember the grid computing hype?). Before that in 1998 it was "i" in DB 8i for "internet".

You don't install the DB and get an AI, you get an empty DB that has vectors.
