What do you mean by the two types of technology converging?

Launching huge telescopes (and possibly assemble them) into space...?

No, I mean ground based telescope tech and space based tech. Both have different limits and advantages.

There is at least one space telescope that connects with ground-based telescopes using interferometry, so in some sense, they could be called one telescope: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spektr-R

Isn’t it size vs astmopheric noise? Or are there loads of other factors?
