I think 10 years is a more realistic estimate. Probably first in servers and Android phones.

Hyperscalers are using RISC-V servers today. Here is an example from SiFive (USA).

And here is an example of Alibaba using RISC-V for inference and training in the cloud:

Those are both up and running today.

And of course there is Tenstorrrent:

They are everywhere already in microcontrollers like ESP32.
Yeah but op was talking about directly using a RISC-V computer. The embedded RISC-V CPUs are effectively black boxes.
