I rarely utilize the machine of sorrow, and only if I fail to find the information in normal search engines with effort and time invested. The prompt was:
What is the term for when an update breaks previously working features?
What is the main origin of the term? Why was it used instead of other alternatives?
Link to direct sources and find the most correct and valid reason.
And I sure never ever used nor will use the freaking ineffably sorrowful, disgraceful, and disrespectful towards the Wikipedia and People work, effort, and the dear infinitely marvelous history:
- Grokipedia
Such a sad time to live…

This eventuality has been known to be in the near future, that AI models would start to hoover their own nonsense at a certain point, making them even more inaccurate over time.
