GPU performance projections: 3x faster than 5090 by 2030?

A discussion on Reddit's r/LocalLLaMA forum speculates about future GPU performance increases. Based on an average generational jump of 50% since 2009, participants project that GPUs could be three times faster than a 5090 by 2030. The conversation explores various scenarios, including best-case (70% uplift/gen, ~2029), historical average (50.3% uplift/gen, ~2030-2031), modern average (46.1% uplift/gen, ~2032), and worst-case (30% uplift/gen, ~2038) performance increases.
