I can't speak on the rate of buggy software increasing, though it makes sense since the barrier to entry has dropped, however LLMs are now also finding bugs at a much larger scale than ever before.
We're seeing decade old bugs being found, popular software suddenly releasing hundreds of bug fixes at once. It's a double edged sword.
