RAM isn’t ruining shit. AI using up the consumer supply and driving up the price of RAM is ruining everything.

The ram cartel produces exactly enough ram to keep prices stable, increased demand means the produced supply is not sufficient so prices rise

This is not a capacity issue, it’s forced scarcity and collusion laid bare

OpenAI put in an order for 40% of RAM supply at two of the three companies that make RAM.

This is most certainly a supply/demand issue. See linked article for more details.
