HDMI 2.2 will require new “Ultra96” cables, whenever we have 8K TVs and content (arstechnica.com)

And you will need it in 5-10 years if/when you have a display and accessory that requires it. I doubt anyone will need the new cable anytime soon

I will probably still be using 1080P in 10 years. I've had a 4K TV for a long time and still don't have any 4K content.
The only thing I would like 8K for is a computer monitor for CAD, but that certainly won't be using HDMI.
