This is unlikely to happen with current rules. You would likely need to radically change copyright and patent laws for a fast-moving sector like semiconductors to create real competition.

Semiconductor performance will continue to improve and the baseline will always be the most modern CPUs and GPUs (even if prices continue to rise).

And as processing doesn’t keep increasing, perhaps coding will have to become more efficient so older or cheaper devices will also be useful.

Currently there is little incentive toake code efficient if speed will double anyway over time.
