PowerShell 7.1 may not look like it has huge changes at first glance, but there is a lot more going on under the hood than one may expect. There are also a number of very useful features and tools that can enhance your scripting and help you develop even better scripts. PowerShell 7.1 was released on 11/11/2020 and is quickly becoming adopted by many in the IT community. This article goes into a number of improvements and enhancements but is by no means a comprehensive collection of all the improvements.0-

Michael Pietroforte started the topic High CPU load with Windows 10 update running in Parallels Desktop VM in IT Administration Forum 1 day ago
Whenever the Windows 10 update process starts to download in a Parallels Desktop VM the CPUs on my MacBook Pro 16 (latest edition with 8 cores) the CPUs go crazy. Windows 10 is the only "app" that made my Mac sweat so far. I had a similar issue with Windows 10 and VMware Workstation. I wonder why a simple download process needs so much CPU juice? Did anyone experience a similar issue? Is this also happening on a PC? I didn't touch a Windows 10 PC for ages.

I also follow the development closely for the last 30 years or so and I have not seen any kind progress with regard to AGI. Today I "talked" to one of Microsoft's chat bots that is supposed to give support for Microsoft 365. This was a total embarrassment. This machine didn't "understand" the simplest sentences. I asked "How can I get an invoice?" and this silly bot answered with something totally unrelated. After 3 attempts I had to give up. Even ELIZA that was created more than 50 years ago did a much better job.
0 I'm not directly professionally involved with AI, but I'm following developments closely and have few good friends that are deeply involved in AI as software engineers/architects. It is just my opinion and time will show.

I wonder makes you so confident? Are you working with AI?
0 AI Is the biggest thing ever and it will only get bigger with time. Asking "Is AI the next big thing in IT?" in 2020 is not a serious question! Answer is "off course it is!". The only thing that's up for debate is when will it exceed human intelligence and will it be the thing that ends human race or will it make us near Gods.

More than 200 IT pros voted in our Artificial Intelligence polls. Whereas the numbers about the current situation in IT departments met my expectations, I am a bit surprised about the opinions IT experts hold about Artificial General Intelligence.

Michael Pietroforte commented on MSIX: Microsoft’s unified package format for all Windows applications 1 day, 7 hours ago
How can an operating system be great if the most important purpose of an OS, that is, the installation of applications, is technologically such a mess? The last good installer MS delivered was with MS DOS. Then came the Registry mess and with Windows 8 Microsoft somehow managed it to make it even worse. It remains to be seen if MSIX can clean up the mess that MS engineers created over the last decades.

In August, Microsoft enabled a new Windows 7-like Optional updates option within the Windows Updates panel on Windows 10. Microsoft previously handled the optional updates via Device Manager, but the company has disabled the automatic updates feature in Device Manager and urged customers to use Windows Update instead.0 SAM commented on MSIX: Microsoft’s unified package format for all Windows applications 1 day, 10 hours ago
Microsoft wanted to force developers to adopt archane ways of installatiin. Its always been a great OS except you needed high amounts of skills to make installers that in the end 99% really just copy a bunch of files to a folder and run it. Aweful from day one till today. Make MSIX make up for your past and fix this crap.
