Could be an interesting diary reminder to check in around Q3 2024 to see what the various authors thoughts are when the papers are published.
I'll take the call as a pretty much acceptance of neuromorphic going mainstream

Special Section on “Neuromorphic Computing Technologies for Consumer Electronics”
Theme:
Recently, consumer electronics have moved toward data-centric applications due to the development of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. With the growing demand for large memory capacity, fast processing speed, and complex data computation in consumer electronics, neuromorphic computing has been emerged as the next-generation technology to promote the revolution and development of consumer electronics.
Neuromorphic computing technologies offer tremendous potential for computing beyond Moore’s law, which have been
involved in all aspects of consumer electronics applications. Specifically, neuromorphic computing technologies with extreme energy efficiency will be indispensable for smart device applications such as intelligent monitoring system, unmanned aerial vehicle, service robotic, etc. In addition, neuromorphic computing technologies inspired by human brain can handle the avalanche of unstructured data, which are well poised to become the AI accelerators in personal computing devices such as smart phones, laptops, and desktops.
Furthermore, neuromorphic computing technologies promise a massively parallel, efficient, and scalable computational solution with large implications such as smart manufacturing, smart grids, smart home, and smart city on the daily lives of consumers.
To promote the development of neuromorphic computing and related fields in consumer electronics, this special section will provide a platform for researchers to exchange the latest research and practitioner findings. The special section will focus on the hot topics of neuromorphic computing, the latest progress of emerging devices and hardware implementations for consumer electronics, brain-inspired computing structures and learning methods in consumer electronics, the interdisciplinary applications of neuromorphic computing in consumer electronics, etc. This special
section aims to achieve the deep integration of advanced materials science, computer science, and electronic science and technology, which is expected to accelerate the development of neuromorphic computing systems and the adoption for consumer electronics applications.
Topics of interest in this Special Section include (but are not limited to):
Evolving consumer materials, attributes, and functionality in neuromorphic computing systems
Emerging neuromorphic computing devices, circuits, and algorithms for consumer electronics applications
Integration of sensing, storage, and processing in consumer electronics
Consumer behavior analysis with neuromorphic computing systems
