The development of artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI TECH). will go a long way in boosting user experiences of PC, laptop, and mobile computers - esp. for those of us who are only "somewhat technically orientated."

One example (LINK) is how AI TECH. (in the near future) will help fix, and maintain our computers; that is our systems can be maintained/diagnosed in ways very similar to how anti-malware services keep our computer security at least reasonably up-to date (Cybersecurity will also get a boost through AI TECH).

I can't wait for that . These appliances offer so much yet , for me , they seldom deliver without tons of problems . I want them be be more like a high performance car , something that I can push to limits of my capabilities without having to know how everything works . I want to be a driver , not a mechanic .

That's a real shame. I can't stand Windows 10's normal start menu.
