This is a general theme with technology and the 'S-curve'. Let's not even get into whether the improvement for AI reasoning ability has slowed - for practical purposes of writing a React frontend, it has.

But other tech is like that - I don't even remember when I bought my LCD TV - 2018 I think? I have no inclination of buying a new one.

Technology has a tendency to replace new technology, or intrude into vacant areas, but its very rare for technology to replace non-technology (like human interaction).

Most of the recreation humans do in front of screens is tending to (para)social relationships.

LCD backlights are usually rated for 5-10 years of normal use so your inclination might change soon.

Eh, I’m using an 15-year old LCD monitor and its still fine. One generally doesn’t use these at full brightness.
