yahoo news | AI funding uncertainties are shaking up memory producers. Will we finally be... Since June 2025, RAM prices have surged to unprecedented levels, a trend amplified after the GPU shortage of 2020 and lingering COVID‑related supply‑chain disruptions. The latest catalyst has been the rapid expansion of AI workloads, which gobbled up large swathes of memory inventory. The situation worsened in September when OpenAI’s funding pipeline stalled after Disney pulled back from its Sora project, casting doubt on whether the company would continue purchasing the massive volumes of undiced wafers it had previously earmarked. Competing AI firms such as Anthropic are gaining ground, while Google’s advances in AI efficiency promise to cut memory demand, together creating a sudden reduction in the appetite for new RAM. The ripple effect of these funding uncertainties has been felt across the major memory manufacturers. Micron, SK Hynix, and even Samsung—though not a primary RAM producer—saw their share prices tumble as investors reacted to the news of shrinking AI orders. Concurrently, market data show DDR5 kit prices falling for the first time in eight months in Germany, a 20 % dip in certain U.S. segments, and a $14‑per‑module drop in China within a single day. These price corrections suggest that the extraordinary inflation that once quadrupled RAM costs may finally be abating, giving consumers a glimpse of more affordable memory. If the downtrend continues, the broader tech and gaming ecosystems could benefit. Lower RAM prices would ease the financial pressure on upcoming consoles such as the PlayStation 6 and the next‑generation Xbox, helping them retain mid‑range pricing targets. Reduced memory costs would also translate into cheaper SSDs and other storage solutions, potentially reviving delayed projects like the Steam Machine. While external factors like rising oil prices and geopolitical tensions still pose risks to manufacturing and shipping costs, the emerging decline in RAM pricing offers a hopeful outlook for both gamers and the wider hardware market.

So, #Sora. The stories are starting to roll and speculation is running rampant as to why #OpenAI pulled the plug, especially with the Disney billion dollar buy-in. I think a bunch of factors came into play, the primary of which, there IS NO BUSINESS MODEL in which this product could pay for itself. It was costing OpenAI something like $10-20 million a day to be a meme generator. Liability. A couple of recent rulings are bound to make generative LLM companies real nervous about csam and impersonation. Energy costs have spiked and will stay high for foreseeable future. Video generation is resource intensive. Shortage of memory, cards, chips, etc., mean they're going to pivot towards potentially profitable arenas like military, growing the panopticon, finding new ways to be evil. The usual billionaire bullshit. Is it the bubble popping? Maybe...but probably not yet. They've paid for enough politicians that they're too big to fail now. Which is worse.
