Honestly, I think Clippy might be due for a comeback. Of course I don't think actual Clippy will come back but I think that some actual intelligent AI could help with office tasks if it worked (which is a big if). In the same way that Word knows I want an outline if I type "I." I think it might be useful if Word could know I want to type a letter if I start with an address or something.
