Why is AI training still so unfriendly for normal users?

Genuine question.
Why does almost every AI training setup still feel extremely engineer-focused?
Most tools I’ve tried expect people to already understand things like:
CUDA

VRAM

LoRA settings

Docker

dependency issues

quantization

optimizers

terminal commands

training configs

Even simple fine-tuning workflows become confusing fast.
I’ve been thinking a lot about whether there’s room for a much more beginner-friendly approach where users could basically:
upload dataset → train → test → deploy
while the system handles things like:
GPU selection

safe limits

preventing huge billing mistakes

deployment setup

logs

model storage

Do people here actually want simpler AI training workflows, or do most users eventually learn the technical side anyway?
Curious what the biggest pain points are for people who’ve tried training models themselves.
