A few years ago, Amazon chairman Jeff Bezos revealed how he thinks of local PC hardware as antiquated, ready to be replaced by cloud options from companies like AWS and Azure.
Bucha Bull to me.

Stadia was Google and Bezos runs Amazon, who does have their own game streaming service, Luna, which is still operational.
I haven’t used either of those, but I’ve been using GeForce Now recently while waiting for a replacement PSU and I have to say, it works really well. The on-device apps (Samsung monitor, LG TV) leave a lot to be desired but once you’re in a game, the latency is negligible for me and they’re running games high enough that it looks as good as when I was running it on my own 3090.
None of that to say I disagree with you, but I do like that the option exists; it’s not black and white, good and bad. But it SHOULD be just that - AN OPTION. Not the only choice left after AI has demolished the market.
Take solace in the fact the AI bubble will pop and all these “sold” wafers will suddenly flood the market as they turn to consumer brands to try and offload them. I don’t think we’re headed for this “all compute in the cloud” future he wants. Not yet.
