The tech industry is now reaping what it started sowing years ago with irresponsible AI rollouts and AI-centric budgets. There's a lot of macroeconomic reasons, but within tech I mainly blame the higher-level executives pushing for limited budgets for humans and treating everything as a problem that AI can solve. That's not even mentioning the limited upsides of most AI deployments, compared to the impact on Earth's environment and the impact to human life and economic systems. But the impacts of AI have been discussed at length. I've generally been pessimistic about where tech and capitalism is going, so I'm not going to pretend things are going to get better as a society if current trends continue.
