If you can achieve scaling with software, you can delay current plans for expensive hardware. If a new driver came out that gave Nvidia 5090 performance to games with gtx1080 equivalent hardware would you still buy a new video card this year?
When all the Telcos scaled back on building fiber in 2000, that was because they didn't have a positive outlook for the Internet?
Or when video game companies went bankrupt in the 1980's, it was because video games were over as entertainment?
There's a huge leap between not spending billions on new data centers ( which are used for more than just AI), and claiming that's the reason AI is over.
