RAM prices rising due to AI demand

AI demand is supposedly pushing tech forward, but it's also making RAM prices climb hard for everyone. Laptops are shipping with less RAM to keep costs down, smartphones are getting pricier with lower-end models cutting RAM and storage, and future consoles might face delays or reduced VRAM to save money. Mid-range GPUs are likely to stay at 8GB VRAM. A $1000 PC build in 2025 could include 32GB of DDR5 RAM, but now 32GB of DDR4 costs more than that did back then. If prices keep rising, it's going to get worse for every consumer electronic with memory.
