You are wrong daikiki. AI is a tech that is going to change everything, it's the "computers" of this era, they are investing in a technology that will boom. Even if you don't think it will they will push it, see what google is doing, they rigged up the search results and now you necessarily have to use AI to get good answers, it's also there by default so you can't really avoid it.

Many people have no interest in replacing PC parts
Many people have no interest in replacing their car tires and they just want to drive but i'm sure they would be really pissed if once a tire bursts they would have to replace the car.
if you have time to play videogames on one of these you also have the time to build your own pc. You don't have to anyway, you can pay someone to build it for you, the price would be about the same.
The steam deck is a portable device, soldering components and custom parts in devices that need to be small it's more justifiable because it can save space. This box on the other hand is a SFF pc that has to be small only for marketing reasons.
I’ll also say that not everyone wants to build their own PC and would prefer the assurance that everything will just work out of the box, yet still don’t want a locked-down experience that you’d get with consoles. And that’s okay.
some people don't want to cook their launch and get mcdonald
This is a custom small form factor PC with many of its components being user replaceable. The GPU and CPU are soldered, which is unfortunate, but it is still significantly more upgradable and repairable than any other console that has existed. So what the hell are you on about?
Consoles are garbage, bringing a PC close to these is rowing in the wrong direction. Their presentation doesn't say much about components being replaceable and hint at fix storage. GPU is one of the most important pieces in a machine that is supposed to be dedicated to videogames
I think you’re just dumb and don’t know what you’re talking about.
You are on lemmy, a decentralized and open source platform that doesn't share peanuts with steam or for profit companies like valve, i may be dump but i encourage you to learn more about open source software/hardware and decentralized platforms.
consoles are PCs running proprietary software
For those of us who care for that sort of thing,
what sort of thing? a SFF pc? you can build one quite easily of pay someone to build it for you, it's cheaper and more reliable
It is also very hard for them to do marketing selling third parties modular parts, it's much better for them to come up with a product.
If you want to swap your GPU, build your own SFF.
If you want to replace parts in your computer so that it doesn't became useless in 5 years or end up in a landfill when a piece break, build your own SFF
With this machine you are stuck to a specific case. With a modular setup you can chose the case you want between thousand.
Fractal design terra has a similar design and can fit a big GPU
