Moores law is dead when it comes to power consumption, that means compute is getting more capital intensive.

If you have an algorithm that works and need scale, you must vertically integrate to maintain an edge over those using more general compute architectures.

Seeing as the GPU is still the primary method used for training ML models, the jury is still out on that. If/when this materializes maybe that will change, but that is a big "if".
