Compare the games your average high-end smartphone can run to the AAA titles of the 2010's. It's not a matter of "unless it is able to" but "when it is able to".

That's going from 150w 720p gaming to ~15w 720p gaming in ~10 years. A typical inference cluster will draw well over 1500w to deliver even a small-ish 500b model at reasonable speeds/quantization.
So, extrapolating from your gaming example, it will take smartphones only... *checks clipboard* ...100 years to achieve datacenter-level performance at the pace of 2010's improvements.
