Maybe people doing AI development who want the option of running local models.

But baking AI into all consumer hardware is dumb. Very few want it. saas AI is a thing. To the degree saas AI doesn't offer the privacy of local AI, networked local AI on devices you don't fully control offers even less. So it makes no sense for people who value convenience. It offers no value for people who want privacy. It only offers value to people doing software development who need more playground options, and I can go buy a graphics card myself thank you very much.
