    Just saw a paper about shifting AI training to nvme drives. But the penality, even with direct from GPU access was high.

    If this trend looks to go past a few quarters I would expect new software or features to prioritize it. I'm sure some cool cats in the FOSS world might indenpently be motivated by this as well as part of their contributions.

    Honestly from an ecosystem side, it would be cool to see more of the green computing metrics being added to big projects

    Yeah, and for consumer software, the companies developing the software don't have to pay for the RAM, so unless it becomes a widespread reason to switch away from their software, they do not have to care at all.

    Maybe something like this will happen for some critical proprietary software, at Cloudflare etc. But I wouldn't expect any benefits for software ran on your personal machine, unless the shortage goes on for 10 years.

    RAM is still cheaper than developers, at least until some point

    No, plenty of software already runs like shit and didn't get optimised. Until people find "not running like shit" more of a selling point than "has new ai feature" commercial software will do the latter.
