Why do you think so?

Technological progress seems rather accelerated than diminishing to me.

Computers are a great example: They have been getting more capable exponentially over the last decades.

In terms of performance (memory, speed, bandwidth) and in terms of impact. First we had calculators, then we had desktop applications, then the Internet and now we have AI.

And AI will help us get to the next stage even faster.

More likely this will become the new “search” technology and get polluted with ads. People will lose trust and it will decay.

That is certainly where the economic incentives appear to be.
