    Will that be enough for AI's hunger?

      It will be just in time for when AI will run very well on consumer hardware and the need for data centers will collapse.

        That's never going to happen. By the time you can run current frontier models on your $10k desktop the frontier will have massively advanced and people will want those models instead.

          You don’t need frontier-level performance for every task. That’s why companies hire both junior and senior developers. I suspect a decent percentage of people using Fable would probably be fine with Opus.

          Also, the frontier can’t keep advancing at this rate forever. Eventually the low-hanging fruit will all be gone and advances will slow down.
