The Real Constraint in AI Memory Isn't Demand. It's Supply. Here's Who's Fixing That.
They're riding a supply-demand high right now, but the focus is sustainability.
Overview
Although most people only interact with artificial intelligence (AI) through generative AI tools like ChatGPT, there are tons of working parts behind the scenes that make it happen.
In the earlier stages of the current AI mania we're experiencing, attention was on the companies making graphics processing units (GPUs) and AI accelerators. Then, attention went to companies building out data centers and other infrastructure. Now, it seems the focus has gotten a bit more niche, with memory chip makers among the hottest (and most volatile) stocks on the market.
Details
Demand for memory hardware has shot up in the past couple of years, far outpacing supply. And while a few key companies are working to address it, it's not an issue that'll be fixed overnight.
