    it's almost like there should be dedicated modules for each purpose, rather than the GPU being the one-stop-shop for high-demand computing.

    I don't understand. The GPU was created as a dedicated module. It just happened that the parallel tasks needed for rendering games could be used first for crypto and later LLM's.

    The problem is factory capacity. It doesn't matter how you divide up the components based on purpose if one company prepays all factories to only make components for themselves.
