#ai#ram

500% increase in prices of memory 1 ... glad I build my gaming pc upgrade mid of last year - hope the ai bubble bursts at some point by someone inventing model inference which reduces usage by half.

looks like RAM is sold out until end of next year 1 - I think everyone who can produce chips is currently celebrating the moneyprinters in their factories - and some are giving back to their employees: ASML makes payments of 22000€ on each employee this year. 2
