Do people not buy gaming PCs and game consoles? Isn't that buying something because "there's lots of fun stuff?"

And while sure a business owner wouldn't be buying it for "fun stuff", if it was about being able to run the AI tools they want without the business risk of sending your most important data and intellectual property to an AI provider wouldn't some think about it?
