Seems unlikely. We're already seeing specialized hardware optimized for LLM performance (taalas, groq, cerebras), and simple economies of scale result in these sorts of products being a better value when rented from a server vs purchased/managed/upgraded for the typical the user.

Frontier models will continue to be either exclusively available from servers or significantly more affordable from servers vs local alternatives for the foreseeable future.
