Anyone else buying a Mac now partly as a hedge against losing affordable local AI?

I'm wondering how many people here are buying high-memory Macs not just because they want one now, but because they think the window for affordable, capable local AI hardware is closing.

My reasoning: between datacenter demand eating memory supply and the growing odds of regulation as agent incidents pile up, I think high-VRAM / unified memory machines get more expensive and possibly restricted, sooner rather than later.
