It's interesting the amount of time technologies take to propagate. It seems to take about 5 years.
The Xerox Alto appeared in 1973. The first integrated microchip CPUs were created in 1969 and the Altair launched in 1974. The Web was created in 1989 and Netscape Navigator launched in 1994. GPT based LLMs began in 2017 and hit the mainstream last year...
Maybe these are cherry picked examples, but it seems like a pattern.
