Saying that AI hardware is near a dead end because Moore's law is running out of steam is silly. Even GPUs are very general purpose, we can make a lot of progress in the hardware space via extreme specialization, approximate computing and analog computing.

I'm mostly saying that unless a chip-designing AI model is an actual magical wizard, it's not going to have a lot of advantage over teams of even mediocre human engineers. All of the stuff you're talking about is Moore's Law limited after 1-2 generations of wacky architectural improvements.
