The future of Software

Since 3 days, I have been trying to understand the way software industry has evolved and is evolving and will evolve. It’s been a long time software industry has not gone through a radical change, if we notice it’s same kind of software we are still developing but including more features and functionality, its jut because hardware has become more powerful, but software never been able to take advantage of the powerful hardware, and we can blame operating systems for the same, but they are not 100% in a blame, we have to blame ourselves software companies and developers for this.

Let's look at what I am trying to say in a bit more detailed manner, to give you a basic problem which I face a lot of time is as follows:
Most of the time whenever I am saving a file, I save file on a desktop, I click on desktop and save a file, and next time when I again want to save file it takes me straight to Desktop, that's really nice and worth, but one application is there in which if I want to save file, before that I use explorer to check the path, the path that I get, I copy that path and paste it in a window which asks me where I want to save a file, now next time when I save file from the same application it opens up the same path where I saved file earlier, which is not at all good for me, because every time I want to save file from that application, I always go through explorer and copy the path, so the best thing will be if application can understand that I am copying path all the time for this application and for other application I am always saving on desktop, that will be really great and would be really wonderful and a lot time saving, so what I mean is, software should become more intelligence rather than being just a guided software application by users.
