Larry Ellison proposed a thin client that was basically a dumb computer with a monitor and nic that connected to a powerful server in the mid 1990s. For a while we had a web browser which was kinda like a dumb client connected to a powerful server. Big tech figured out they could push processing back to the client by pushing JavaScript frameworks and save money. Maybe if arm brings down data center costs by reducing power consumption we will go back to the server.
