SK Hynix, one of the world's largest memory chip makers, is reported to have essentially sold out its production capacity through 2029. The shortage is being attributed to surging demand for high-bandwidth memory from AI developers, leaving other buyers of RAM and storage facing higher prices and limited supply. Tech commentators are voicing frustration at the AI industry's dominance of chip supply.
Why now: The AI boom has consumed memory supply so heavily that one of the biggest vendors has no capacity left for years, affecting prices and availability across the tech industry.
