real time visual data processing for these applications seems to me to not be that expensive and the thinking part will be done as a swarm. There is some real quantity intercept for the demand of compute that does change over time but one can imagine it going down with better inference not to mention ASIC's.

I think there are two sides that want a particular outcome one want gpu's to get cheaper (like I admit I do), others want there investment to work out (both might want to huff copium at some point, who is huffing here is not easy to tell).
