I doubt it, or if it happens it will be more like 20 years, and it will not be represented as a "personal AI datacenter", but it will have a much more concrete / application oriented use case.
@cjd @gabriel in the near term it might be outlawed as (covertly) a panicked measure to keep the AI bubble from popping, with the obvious datacenter overproduction revealed as useless production, and as (overtly) a public security measure against
a. teens persuading themselves to commit suicide
b. AI-powered terrorism, fraud, and other crime
c. violating DMCA and other IP restrictions, particularly against decompiling binary blobs in general after we've finally run out of open source vulns to exploit
d. boomers actually giving the box "every single piece of information about you and your family", permitting that to be stolen

Don't think it will be outlawed, I just don't think it will be useful enough for consumers to buy them.
Everybody uses ChatGPT because it's free. If they're a business then they pay for more GPT tokens.
Before (almost) anyone had a computer at home, they were in every office. No offices are currently buying AI boxes, they're outsourcing to AI cloud companies. Why should consumers be different?
