“People are instinctively curious: they want to learn, and they learn best by active self-directed exploration of their environment. People strive to master their environment: they like to have a sense of control over what they are doing, to see and understand the results of their own actions.”

That’s from the official Apple user interface guidelines. The first part is certainly untrue, as much as I like the whole work. About most things, including their computers, people are definitely not curious. In fact they will go far, far out of their way to make sure they know nothing of how it works or how best to use it.

Adults at least are generally very incurious in my experience.
