We have always been making more efficient software than ever before . It is just a different kind of efficient, there is economic incentive in making software development process more efficient and not that much incentive for making software itself efficient . Software development is more accessible to millions and millions of new developers due to the work on higher level languages, frameworks , IDEs , libraries , low code , copilots and so on . Each of these innovations made software development more efficient (not necessarily faster ) . Nobody buys or uses software because it is faster , only cheaper .
