Over the past 5 years specifically, nearly every single piece of software I use from OS, to apps, to even legacy programs I trusted for decades have started to produce more bugs, are less stable, and less reliable.
At the same time, AI has been forced on people and AI using devs are proliferating while we still lack an understanding of AIs cognitive affects on us.
What exactly am I supposed to think? That all the programmers pushing AI on me like Crypto Bros while their programs work worse are smart, well intentioned people?
You can say whatever you want, I use the software, shits gotten absolutely terrible lately, and it’s not just the purposefully enshitified software either.
“AI makes it easier to be lazy and produce buggy software faster” is your claim, which I agree with. But I have to note that “thus AI can’t be used to produce high quality software” is not something that follows from that.
