a typical CPU in a phone would do just fine. AI effects in photo and video started coming out in phones before new phones started having dedicated hardware to accelerate it. phones have been doing stuff as intensive as that for years. for example, iPhones have been able to make complex and precise full scale textured replicas of real world environments that you can then import into Blender using their lidar capabilities for years. that's quite a bit more intensive of a process than using AI to edit a video.
and as for a PC, there isn't anything you can do to edit a video using AI that a PC CPU would not be able to handle. if a 10 year old laptop can generate video out of thin air using genAI, then applying a sharpening effect would be a piece of cake. hell, I've done stable diffusion on a laptop with just 4GB of VRAM. it's quite a bit slower than with a faster PC, but certainly doable.
