Network

I've been at home today trying to get a workplace laptop to work through my home internet (it won't - or at least, not properly), and this has reminded me that the worst aspect of modern computing, which seems ridiculously immune to adequate simplification, is networking.  

With all the alleged brilliance of AI, when are we going to get to a situation where I can say to my laptop "you're at home now, there's a new wifi you need to connect to, and I need Outlook and my other software to work from here today", and it will do it?

They ought to scrap the way it works now and start again.
