Maybe but that hasn't been the case so far. I could see the government and companies colluding to ensure people never have sufficient hardware to run local AI.
It has been the case with graphiccards for a while already. Took Nvidia forever to upgrade their Vram for their middle class cards in 2020 they finally put 8gb vram on them and in 2015 they had like 3-4gb vram, now they are at 12gb vram some games already require that to run.... And most of the other speccs maybe improve like 10-15% in 2years and the power needed goes up and up. They take their sweet time over the years to not release too powerful cards or people might sit on them for 10+ years if nvidia has no breakthrough in their tech.
