As recently noted by AdDuplex, the Windows 10 1803 rollout is progressing much more smoothly than all previous feature updates. AdDuplex’s figures suggest over 50 percent of Windows 10 users have already been offered the update, while Microsoft’s own numbers say 250 million machines have it. With close to 700 million Windows 10 systems, that’s just over 35 percent.

It’s certainly been a huge improvement over the famously slow and problematic Creators Update last year, and part of the reason this rollout has been so successful is down to Microsoft’s use of AI and Machine Learning.

As Microsoft explains in a new blog post:
Microsoft began its AI/Machine Learning approach during the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update rollout, and although it was a limited trial, „fewer rollbacks, uninstalls, reliability issues, and negative user feedback“ encouraged the company to expand the scale of the approach for the April 2018 Update launch.
Microsoft also explains:
As a result of this new approach, the company feels emboldened enough to now make the April 2018 Update fully available to all. If you haven’t already upgraded, you will be offered it via Windows Update shortly.
