The AI boom finally has consequences...
Your laptop may be perfectly functional today, and still become obsolete far sooner than you expected. The AI boom is consuming enormous amounts of memory and manufacturing capacity, and everyday consumers are starting to pay the price.This video explores how massive AI data centers operated by companies like Microsoft, Meta, Amazon, and Google are driving demand for high-bandwidth memory to unprecedented levels. Memory manufacturers are prioritizing lucrative HBM production for AI systems, while conventional RAM used in laptops, smartphones, tablets, and gaming PCs becomes more expensive and harder to produce.
The consequences are already spreading through consumer technology. Manufacturers are cutting costs elsewhere, entry-level devices are struggling to meet new AI hardware requirements, and millions of computers lack the memory or neural processors needed for the next generation of software.
Eventually, consumers may face two choices: buy increasingly expensive AI-ready hardware or rely on cloud services owned by the same companies consuming the resources in the first place.
The AI boom promised smarter technology. Its real consequence may be making the technology you already own worthless.
