Nah. Fuck AI companies causing the shortage. They should stop delaying the inevitable bubble crash and suffer real consequences.
I mean sure, fuck all those AI business. But the idea that we always need more powerful hardware is a consumerism illusion.
I agree but also this shit is also affecting people who may just need replacement part or in my case just need an SSD so I can see about converting my old PC into a nomad.
