We can expect the model landscape to consolidate some day. Progress will become slower, innovations will become smaller. Not tomorrow, not next year, but the time will come.

And then it'll increasingly make sense to build such a chip into laptops, smartphones, wearables. Not for high-end tasks, but to drive the everyday bread-and-butter tasks.

The world continues to evolve, in a way that requires flexibility - not more constraints. I just fail to see a future where we want less general purpose computers, and more hard-wired ones? Would be interesting to be proven wrong though!

TPU usb-c dongle is less than $100 (widely used for detecting people in home assistant / frigate nvr camera feeds). If one-off $100 purchase can replace (and improve 10x by speed) anthropic subscription even for 12 months - I don't see why not.
