They already tried that once....
---For instance, some of that investment into AI might let MSWindows and MSOffice deduce that the user is having an extramarital affair and (taking advantage of the tight integration of MSIE) suggest that MSAdcenter feature ads for divorce lawyers, contraceptives, inexpensive nearby hotels, etc.---

Didn't they already try that under the name, "Clippy"?

I see you're arranging a secret tryst in a cheap hotel. Would you like to:

1. Purchase a condom
2. Purchase a hat and dark glasses
3. Hire a lawyer
