Much tech _is_ getting worse. Particularly AI, much is about cheaply making a bot that works x% of the time, it's cheaper to piss off a few customers and pay no-one, than to do a good job.
No one likes that, it's cheap and nasty hackery.
People like tech that works 100% of the time, and keeps doing it. Stuff that could not be done before that can now.
People don't like churn. Constant upgrades. Built in obscelecense. AI that work 95% at best. Maps that make different decisions each time. UI fads. Framework wars. Google buying and killing services. Clis that are not automatable.
"The only thing that is constant is the rate of chane" is an observation that tech is not providing what was promised: automation.
Cheaper nastier flakey versions of what worked fine should get a boo.
