It looks like we're in for another few years of high #inflation, due to surging prices for #RAM and consequently about anything that uses #electronics: https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/ram/data-centers-will-consume-70-percent-of-memory-chips-made-in-2026-supply-shortfall-will-cause-the-chip-shortage-to-spread-to-other-segments https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/memory-ram-shortage-2026-f55324b0 Question is: How will this affect the #AI #bubble? Will it finally burst or will investors just throw in even more money to be burned? Edit: Another question is: How will this affect #politics, e.g. the #midterms in the #US? Further surging prices should be to #Trump|s disadvantage, right? (#uspol) Or will #Trump just issue an executive order banning export of #chips (not that so many are produced in the #USA, but still...)
