Training time is a massive constraint on advancement of the science, so at the very least the field would progress much faster and be much more accessible to researchers.

Faster processing alone won't make training 1000x faster, the bottleneck is more on the memory size / bandwidth side
I feel people are overlooking the OP's mention of parallel improvements in storage and speed of access. While there are physical limits to this, I feel like capabilities will continue to expand not so much in terms of pure speed as in better automation of parallelization and resource allocation.
The thread is about the whole stack 1000x'ing. Not just processing speed.
