It’s artificial - this is what happens when the capitalist leader goes full corrupt in late stage capitalism, cartels and oligarchies follow suit since they know they are not going to be punished. The factories that make RAM have literally stopped making it, at least for the general public. This is a closed market that has a few key players based in the US/Taiwan/South Korea and China, and they are all trying to keep their closed markets while the world suffers.
Consumers don’t matter when they can appeal to an even more gullible group that buys on masse, and, soft of like what is happening with the housing market, the late stage capitalism end result of it all will be a shift from owning your own PC to owning the barest minimum you need as a terminal so they can milk you with services.
This is more of a wild tangent, so I’ll leave this hanging as a reply instead.
We have the gullible joining forces with the billionaires/future trillionaires on this. AI itself is supposed to become a means for this, a direct scaffold between all the resources needed and all the rich people who will benefit from it - fear AGI, it will topple societies.
Just wait until the consumer market AGIcorps that are no longer needed because the need for the common human horse has been eradicated is turned against the luxury / power market AGIcorps. There will be no shortage of rich assholes willing to let go off the reins purely out of spite, it will be the necroevolution of the AGIcorp consumer market against the remaining AGIcorps, who centralized as they may be are still going to have to duke it out. Hint: humans will be the weakest link in that chain of decision, and evolution will dictate they be eliminated.
The funny thing is that hyperintelligent life isn’t a threat to humanity. Mutations with several times the brain and processing power haven’t just taken over, animals don’t just go for bigger brains. The threat to humanity is that this life will follow in its tradition of “I don’t care as long as I get mine” that has fueled the rise of billionaires. Life finds many ways, it’s all about how the individual cells and parts can cooperate to form part of something bigger, and when they can’t. The cancer, the cancer does what it always does, it hogs all the resources and leads to the decline of the entire system until its in a state where only the parasites survive. Oh, hi US.
