"Chip design relies heavily on software tools, which are computationally demanding. Better chips can run these tools more efficiently, yet we haven't experienced an uncontrolled rate of improvement" ...
We have seen an exponential rate of improvement. And this is the whole point of why people talk about runaway AI; it's relative to the exponential growth of complexity observed in software and computer hardware scaling.
Yes it's slowing now but it many years of exponential growth transforming a lot in tbe process
