Without AI, software is getting worse every year. My question is: will AI resolves that problem, or will it make it worse?

My feeling is that AI will keep the software industry in the same trend: produce more software of lower quality while being more profitable.

People sometimes say "perfect is the enemy of good". But this implies that putting less effort is "good enough". I believe it goes the other way: why would a company put efforts into selling you something good, if it can make you pay the same for something worse? It's all about maximising profit, and AI is no exception there.
