I've noticed a steep decline in software quality as a consumer since Covid, but especially since ChatGPT came out.

That hasn't changed. Whether it's apps that hog too much memory, games that use too much storage, unresponsiveness, or just plain cryptic error messages, everything feels more fraile than it used to be.

Perhaps its the growing pains of LLMs, a horde of junior programmers pushing stuff to production that the seniors were too "old fashioned" to notice.

Only time will tell.
