Cookie banners works because they're everywhere and user has been trained to dismiss them as soon as possible. If this technology would get traction from major players, cookie banners will become an exception rather than norm. It means that users will be scared of those banners and might prefer to leave the website which will hurt the conversion.

If this movement is not backed by major web players, probably nothing will happen.

All my friends and family just click the CTA, "accept", "I'm OK with that", "Mmm cookies yummy!"
