    I’m so tired of this refrain. I long for the times where hardware was abundant and attainable for the consumer.

      Maybe the plan is to take away the ability for people to buy completed so they instead rent compute in the form of a prompt. After the people stop using their brains, they won't need computers anymore!

        Or it truly is a supply/demand issue and either A) AI demand slowing and/or B) the tens if not hundreds of billions Intel, Micron, Samsung and TSMC are sinking into new fabs will resolve the issue.

        Oh a typo. Mobile autocorrect fumble. "completed" is supposed to read computers.

      Don’t worry it will end soon, either the AI bubble bursts, or other chip makers hit the market, or what likely would happen is AI will be resource hungry and compute demanding that consumer grade tech won’t be enough.
