"Grid computing" is going to need more than speeds similar to 100mbit Ethernet. "AI" has been around practically since computers were invented, so I am not sure how the "first iteration" of AI will be created thanks to these higher speeds.

Test4Theory is typical distributed computing setup with "small" datasets that require high processing time/simulation to get results. It's not like they are streaming live data from the LHC to your computer. They rely on an actual distributed/grid computer to do that.

Also next gen FPS will certainly not require or take advantage of 100mbit connections because most people don't have them. No one is going to make a game that comes near needing 100mbit/sec.
