    Yep, it's funny how it works

    1. Invented scarcity by exiting consumer memory market, and sanctioning Chinese memory suppliers that can help fill the gap
    2. Use all the memory on speculative data centers
    3. Make consumer tech so expensive that they're forced to lease them, rent virtual machines or do buy now pay later and pay interest
    4. Profit
    5. Consumers pay for bailout of AI company investors when bubble pops?
