If LLMs drive GPUs manufacturers to add more memory, will that mean game developers will create ever-larger textures to fill up that memory? Will we see multi-terabyte game downloads or streaming textures from a CDN?
Alternatively: What would a AAA game be able to do differently if it had access to a GPU with 48GB or 96GB of fast memory?
