Yes and no.

Some systems already exist. Certain tools already exist in Windows 7 for example. But no one uses them, as the focus has never been on such broad usability.

That and the money. It costs a lot to get it running well.

A real life personal assistant can help to some extent. Though I'm still waiting for a neural net trained speech and screen recognition I can let run wild and just access anything I ask it to (though that could have some poor consequences :P ).
