Seriously. There are a lot of parallels between GPUs and quantum processors in terms of being architected towards a more specialized form of computing and I could totally see QPUs being a thing in the future, e.g. for number crunching tasks (Shor) or database searches (Grover). Similar story for NPUs, which are tailored to do ML inference (so mostly matrix multiplication) quickly.

It took them a few years, if I remember right, though they did add the unlock-with-watch pretty early.
