RAM Prices Explode 240% as AI Data Centers Drain Global DRAM Supply

RAM prices have surged over 240% as AI data centers consume global DRAM supply, leaving consumer electronics starved for memory. The three major manufacturers—Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron—control 95% of production and are pivoting to high-margin AI contracts. Micron's Crucial brand is exiting consumer markets entirely, while analysts predict the supply shortage could extend into 2028.

IBM CEO warns $8 trillion AI data center buildout can't turn a profit at current spending rates

IBM CEO Arvind Krishna questions whether the trillion-dollar AI infrastructure boom makes financial sense. He estimates that 100 gigawatts of planned AI data center capacity would cost $8 trillion and require $800 billion in annual profit just to service debt. With five-year hardware refresh cycles and accelerating depreciation, Krishna warns hyperscalers face unsustainable economics chasing AGI.
