>At this rate they'll be manufacturing 0nm chips soon, and in a decade they'll be on -1nm.

The industry has chosen angstroms as the next unit. Where 1.4nm will becomes 14A. ( Intel for now, but TSMC has uses the term in a few of its presentation )

>If TSMC/Samsung/Intel can squeeze out just one or two more nodes,

We have a very solid roadmap all the way to 1nm, or 10A by the end of this decade. As long as the market is willing to pay for it. At least TSMC 3nm and 2nm is pretty much done.

>limited general-purpose AI in every home

Like the comment below, I am not convinced the brute force approach works. You can already build a 800mm2 NPU today that is equivalent to a chip used in "in every home and office." by the end of this decade. But we are still no where near it.
