Conspiracy theory or apt prediction? — The AI-fueled hardware shortage will kill local PCs, paving the way for subscription-based cloud computing

As an analyst, I’m increasingly concerned about the resource demands of this AI. It consumes a huge amount of water and electricity, and I believe it significantly contributed to the widespread layoffs we saw in 2025.

So, boosting the CPU doesn’t always help – sometimes it actually hurts!
