My $.02 - we will see increased market interest for:

• Linux desktop, Privacy-Focused Phones
• Enterprise LLMs, Inside-the-firewall ML, Nx

1. Generative AI shortly to become mundane. It is already a captured commodity market.

2. Domain specialisation will be the only way to enter/survive the market (although we all do prefer an exit of course)

3. Many grey areas and potential conflicts between AppStore governance & how business/consumers want to use Agents, local LLM &c. (privacy, rights, abuse, harms)

For Nx, I’m not qualified to speak. More generally there are interesting theoretical developments in moving away from MatMul methods that might bypass some of BEAMs weaknesses in future.

I can be your anecdotal data point. I don’t mind all these features on my phone where all I’m doing is playing games and watching YouTube, but having this on my computer where my source code, private docs, etc live is frightening. I’m definitely looking into alternatives for desktop computing, and will not be updating my current Mac
