I honestly hope some good comes out of the shortage. Like, maybe some products that never needed any electronics get made without them again, or things that have entire computers built into them just go back to a few basic controllers. A good OLED TV that is just a panel and doesn't come with a slow horrible computer built in would be nice.

My guess would be the exact opposite: current chip shortage has lead to billions of USD more put into new fabs and R&D. I think/hope the market will overreact to this shortage, and I'm excited to see what we will be able to do with all those new faster ultra-low cost microcontrollers in 5-10 years.
