The worms sound more useful for society.

And when it's not AI, and not crypto, it's a "sorry the rain kinda fucked up our DRAM factory, limited capacity for a year" or "sorry COVID kinda fucked up our resource pipelines, reduced capacity for a year".

There's always an excuse to pump up the prices, and never a reason to lower them. I do hope DRAM manufacturers get bitten in the ass for it though, have the AI bubble pop, leaving them with a bunch of orders that can't be fulfilled because the buyers no longer exist...
