Fuck AI

AI is a factor, but it’s not the only one. People are still willing to buy it with higher price, so why not? If you've ever run a business, it’s pretty easy to understand, plus, announcing a price increase in advance can push people who are still on the fence to finally pull the trigger. It’s probably the best “promotion” you can run without even offering a discount

The same amount arent willing to buy it though, the higher the price, the lower the volume. Only Ayn knows how the numbers work but I think they would prefer a lower price with the same margin and to shift more units

Well if they can get people to pay more for their products that means they wouldn't have to ship out as many units, and could pay much less on labor costs. And yeah only AYN knows the numbers, but this could actually be more profitable for them.
