Well, artificial intelligence is real and a work in progress, computers require less input to work and perform tasks than they used to many years ago. I am just an 80s kid, born in 1984, but ask any of the older Freepers and they could tell you tales that would put the command line interface of DOS to shame. I personally feel it’s way more autonomous for a computer, which automatically does its tasks that had to be manually instructed years ago.
Born in 1964 and can confidently state that things are progressing considerably slower than we were told to expect.
Many of the more mundane tasks a computer is asked to do these days are automated, to be sure. But they are not driven by AI. Someone still has to program them, set up the batch files, schedule them, etc..
AI is a different matter. It requires a machine that's capable of "learning" and recognizing patterns it was never programmed with.
