    But when we blame AI…we are just blaming a consumer of a product

    We are blaming a “consumer” that is consuming the entire world’s supply of a product for no reason other than to destroy the planet and mislead investors in an effort to make themselves even richer.

      That supply is constrained artificially for particular markets. There’s nothing that stops Samsung, Hynix, or Micron from indicating particular runs for different sectors. And if those three had not removed other competition, we would have producers to increase that supply.

      Again, this doesn’t absolve the AI industry in the least. But we have makers that are only making limited selections of product for pure gain and are able to do that via their manipulation of the market. We don’t always have to have a good guy and a bad guy, it can bad guys all around.
