You're not wrong, but with so many chips incorporating some sort of dedicated "AI" or "tensor" functionality, perhaps the issue will resolve itself for most portable devices in a few years. Plus there's always the option of optimizing a little more and/or abusing other available hardware such as DSP chips to get the real time factor down. Anything over 1 isn't great, but it's not a bad start.
