How about those RAM prices?

[Nicepoint]

It seems I bought my laptop RAM at a convenient time.

What do you people think? Is all the AI slop worth it?

Sure is interesting that Ram Prices have magically exploded this year.

Wonder how that happened.

IT'S ONLY GOTTEN WORSE

At this point, I wouldn't be surprised that the other two main RAM manufacturers ditch consumer products as well in order to make gaming an online service. I am feeling very doomer right now. Maybe the rest of the hardware manufacturers will start collaborating with windows and apple to make all new hardware ID paired to a specific OS license so that everyone has to pay for everything in perpetuity.

When the AI Bubble pops its going to be catastrophic.

So many tech bros have deluded themselves into believing AI is literally the second coming of Christ.

And I must emphasize LITERALLY.

They're in for a rude awakening when investors realize it's all just an over advertised Complex Language Prediction Algorithm disguised as intelligence.

There is no way this is going to end well, especially when the US economy is basically dependent on AI.
