    What are the chances that this is orchestrated to bring more computing control to the larger companies who can weather the storm? If end users don’t have ram or storage that will make it even easier to push them into walled garden cloud platforms.

      The only hope for consumers is that Chinese manufacturers pick up the slack, but guess which country western governments ABSOLUTELY don’t want you buying products from?

        How much would it matter?
        Even if they are Chinese manufacturers, they would want to go with the high-price buyer, which is larger companies.
        And if they do keep some reserve for people, out of some long-term-thought or maybe just some morals, wouldn’t they just prefer selling inside China?

      Edit: and they probably like the AI is flooding the open source market with shitty code and PR that can make it hard to know which projects/PR actually is actually done through human efforts for the betterment of the society

        Yeah, they went all in on sabotaging the competition. Using their freely given product to destroy them.
