How AI’s Appetite for Memory Is Turning Chip Windfalls Into an ‘AI Tax’ on Consumers
SK Hynix and Samsung are reallocating memory capacity to serve AI data centres, driving a surge in HBM and SSD demand that has pushed memory prices sharply higher. The result is higher costs and stealth downgrades for consumer devices, with ordinary buyers effectively shouldering the bill for large‑scale AI infrastructure build‑outs.
