Why is the RAM crisis happening even through AI datacenters use a type of RAM that isn't found on consumer hardware?

Manufacturers have a certain amount of chips they can manufacture, let's say they can manufacture 10 million chips per year. Normally they adjust for demand, like manufacture 7 million chips for consumers and 3 million for enterprise customers. Company A contacts them and says "We need 6 million chips for this year, here's the money", But the factories still can manufacture only 10 million chips in total, so they adjust their factories to manufacture more enterprise focused chips, decreasing the amount of chips manufactured used by consumers.

OP’s about to end up like Robert Diesel

The real reason is because the magnet is trying to pull the car. Have you ever tried to pull a car? You'll find it impossible even in neutral. But you'll find out pushing it is much easier.

You should instead magnetise the shell of the car, then hook to its back a magnet with the same pole as the car's back.

All jokes aside, IoT devices suck.

Why does a dishwasher need to connect to a remote server to use its full functionality? Why does my coffee maker need me to start it using an app? At that point it isn't a feature, it's a dependency that the company behind will eventually shut down one way or another.
