I'm convinced that it happens proportionally to information transfer. What once took 10 years to slowly detect now takes about 1 year to realize you don't want the new [thing] because you're feeling a sense of deja vu. In 15 years, it'll be a 3-month endeavor unless we see the human limits of perceptual processing hit a hard wall. I liken it to how memory used to be expensive and engineers cheap, and it's now the other way around.
