GPU mining is dead if difficulty raises so high that electricity costs will far surpass BTC earning potential.
Specialised ASICs created for the sole purpose calculating hashes will consume ~20x less power, cost 5x less but calculate the same amount of mhash/s as an average GPU.
This is of course all utopia at this point until we actually see a mass produced ASIC which can be purchased. It's also possible they will be monopolised by certain people and never sold.
