MODERATORS
The ram cartel produces exactly enough ram to keep prices stable, increased demand means the produced supply is not sufficient so prices rise
This is not a capacity issue, it's forced scarcity and collusion laid bare
OpenAI put in an order for 40% of RAM supply at two of the three companies that make RAM.
This is most certainly a supply/demand issue. See linked article for more details.
