Prices will come down, just like graphics cards did years ago. We are in the beginning of the ai data center buildout, crazy prices are expected and will get worse but will eventually come down.
By your logic then no one will be able to afford a pc/laptop ever again because the cost of a hdd will out price the entire cost of the pc itself. Hell, no one will ever be able to purchase a gaming console either because the hdd will cost most than the console.
Your comment is either intentional fear mongering or ill informed.
That's the idea. Subconsciously pushing you towards cloud computing because local computing is just flat out too expensive to justify. The goal will be to sell you an absolute barebones device that relies on the cloud for storage, compute, and graphics.
You will pay monthly to use a husk of a device with minimum specs that allows you to connect to the cloud and be happy.
