Don't bring politics into it. We can literally see the software being produced getting worse very quickly since the introduction of LLMs for coding. I expect a wave of data breaches to come soon when the hackers realize how many new holes have been created lately and adjust their tactics.

But it's not just software and it's not just LLMs. Everything was starting to turn to slop before LLMs hit the scene.

Yes, it's a cultural problem. A failure of responsibility, a lapse into collective delusion that fails to take the limits of truth and physical reality seriously, in favour of a dream world made of status and money.
AI in theory could be a transformative technology. In practice it's the final product of a self-destructive system that has lost contact with the real world.
