“We think we’re on the cusp of the next evolution, where AI happens not just in that chatbot and gets naturally integrated into the hundreds of millions of experiences that people use every day,” says Yusuf Mehdi, executive vice president and consumer chief marketing officer at Microsoft, in a briefing with The Verge. “The vision that we have is: let’s rewrite the entire operating system around AI, and build essentially what becomes truly the AI PC.”

Why specify just "newer generations?" I do tech support for older generations in my family and they're just as un-tech-savvy.

The vast majority of people don't care how a computer works, they just want it to work. And that's fine. There are lots of machines and other technologies in my life that I can't spend the time to fully comprehend, I've got other stuff I need to do. As long as there are a few people who focus on each kind of machine and each kind of technology then civilization carries on okay.
