You’re assuming that powerful models will eventually run on consumer potato hardware. That isn’t guaranteed. My intuition says that we’ll never be able to pack Opus or GPT-level intelligence small enough to run on a standard consumer laptop or router. At least not without heavy quantization.

never is a strong word but will easily take decades and frontier models then would theoritically be running on insane machine specs which wont be consumer grade.
