I don't think this kind of question can be answered reliably. You can't prove the negative: "No one will ever invent a revolutionary new algorithm for chess calculations" It may or may not be invented. Who knows if even Hsu's chips are the ultimate in hardware technology. Perhaps a billion neuron chip will be written for AI which can be combined with standard CPU technology *and* Hsu's chips. Who knows. Trying to project the future is not very accurate where man is concerned. IMO-YMMV.
