Having effective universal computing and making it usable for people are different enough that there's plenty of room for people specializing in both. Consumer hardware isn't anywhere near finished changing, and I'm sure a lot of the changes on the server level will continue to affect the hardware in people's hands. Intelligence is partially a matter of coordination. It's best to have lots of devices with specialized tasks, so there's room for phones, home servers, data centers, and all the IoT devices. Smart phones were always dumb without a lot of networking. Technology is developed enough that we're seeing the development of ecosystems that are almost as interdependent as natural ecosystems.
