    The desktop computer has already fallen out of prominence as of about 12 years ago (to laptops). But if you mean the desktop UI concept I don't see that changing for a while. There are people that do everything on an iPad, sure, but they're in the extreme minority and it's mostly basic office shit or digital art. There are also people that use tablets to remote into a desktop computer to do more complex work, but that still requires a full desktop OS.

      my zoomer coworker (a programmer) only has a laptop for work. he uses his phone for everything else and frankly, finds it weird that we like to sit in front of these huge monitors just to browse the web.

      for him, the desktop is already dead.
