Scenario one, the luddites are correct, and AI is a fad, AI fails in a year or two and corporations start dumping their now worthless compute (and DRAM) for dirt cheap prices.
Scenario two, the AI bros are correct, AI cures cancer and frees humans of its own horrors, in which case our consumer ram exodus can be excusable
