Well the tip of that $70 trillion iceberg is starting to come through the system. Everything's gotta/gonna get more smart and automated. There's the work that people do that we can make smart machines do and then there's all that other stuff where smartness brings benefit, for example making things smarter to make them more efficient like a thermostat that learns your habits and takes action based on predictions. Intelligence is a main part of computer technology left to be implemented. Storage is solved, networking is solved, audio is solved, display is solved, 3D is solved, mobility is solved, location is solved, everything is getting solved except intelligence. (There are still a few peripherals that need to be solved BTW like battery technology for example but this is getting abated in various ways).
