Now this reminded me of the windows 10 update announcement proudly declaring that they were going to start using ‘machine learning’ to figure out if you were using your computer to minimise the disruption from their automatic updating.

I’m pretty sure ‘machine learning’ isn’t needed to determine whether a computer is being used.
