Well single processors could be taken for local inference. But yes not for graphics. But once the market is swamped in inference hardware it will leave them desperate to get back into the gaming market which will be good for us normies.

They’re not doing it. The cloud providers are doing it so we will all have to pay for cloud subscriptions. I will stay on my PS5 until the AI bubble implodes and all the hardware ends up on the 2nd hand market.
