The RAM didn't go up because of AI. The RAM went up because retarded CEOs saw how "addicted" people were to asking ChatGPT for pancake recipes and thought, "Holy shit, if everyone on Earth starts using it, and then we start charging them like $9, we're gonna get super duper rich," then rushed out to buy every GPU in existence, which led GPU manufacturers to strike an exclusive deal with RAM factories for a direct supply line, leaving everyone else with a dick up their ass.The part that everyone is missing is that no one really gives a shit about AI. They never did and never will. Look closely at the current AI applications:> image/video porn generation> AI girlfriends> a code monkey who can fetch a 10-year-old code snippet from Stack Overflow for you...and tell me it's worth the investment, assuming there wasn't a single advancement in two years. They are currently parading solving one math problem per year as its greatest achievement.
>>62545910They are making a lot of progress in quantizing models down to being able to run on consumer hardware. That attached to a search API is nearly as good as a model with a billion parameters for a normie. Codefags are the only people truely needing these giant models.
>another /v/tard shitting himself and crying about the pricesof ram
>>62545910Idk, im constantly improving my own tech stack with it. I know how the systems interoperate, but I don't know any of the languages. So AI is actually enabling me to build shit I wouldn't have otherwise. My last project was setting up a NAS over tailscale with the whole *arr stack managing my media with qbit. I like it and will continue to use it. I haven't even scratched the surface with agenic capabilities yet, but I'll be dropping 5 figures on gpus for a machine to run my own local models that I'll have monitoring my DNS resolver looking for suspicious shit on my network. I'm having a blast
Oh another unemployment retard, you would know AI is more than that and its here to stay, even when the hype dies down
>>62545910> everyone else with a dick up their ass.Do you happen to be russian anon?
>>62545910There’s so many lies here I’m not even going to bother
>>62545910This is not at all what happened. What happened is in the United States the US government allowed hyper scalers to coordinate behind the scenes avoid avoiding regulatory scrutiny based on the last government shut down. It allowed something that’s supposed to be the free market capitalistic system to shut down entire consumer divisions to focus on providing only for corporate entities to bolster the AI development. We don’t live in a free market system. We live in a state sponsored system. OP is an idiot.
>>62546002>codesissy who thinks everyone wears programming socks
It went up and is still going up because there's more demand than supply. If it makes you feel better the cartel stock prices are eating shit. The bad news? The price of the actual memory modules is still only going up and you might have to pay more for your bing bing wahoo ;_;
3 companies make RAM and found a way to collude in the middle of a pick and shovel boom. What big mystery is there?
>>62545970$10000 consumer hardware that nobody can afford
>>62546581>All prices going up is COLLUSION t. clown who has never built anything
>>62546581Raising prices because of explosive demand is jot exactly rocket science. You don't need to collude with anyone.
>>62545910>opens with a statement: "The RAM didn't go up because of AI">proceeds to explain in detail how and why exactly RAM went up because of AIUnusually common cognitive defect.
>>62546800demand/supply meme isn't even real, you scale your prices based on inventory and production rate, not on some spook like a demand

>>62546817Hey Einstein,“Inventory” and “production rate” fall under the umbrella definition of “supply”.
>>62546861Your supply is irrelevant because you control the demand.You own it, you can ration it at any price you like for any "demand" you want.
>>62545910no it's because you're going to be replaced by a few lines of code
