How so, what sort of change do you imagine?
Well, the power efficiency being much better is one problem to solve. Also various laws need to make pronouncements on copyright, etc. There is also figuring out what will happen to open weight models, what will become of challenges like deepseek.
Ultimately, ai will remain in some form, or catalyze another kind of technology, but it will certainly change tech landscape the way the printing press did.
I think a core part of it is going to be assigning the right queries to the right models.
Dont send recipe or 'Google this for me' queries to the latest most power hungry model, for example. Older models are already hundreds of times less computationally expensive than they were two or three years ago so the problem is already half solved in some sense.
