No one is asking for ads on their fridge. You are really underestimating the cartel like behavior of business in general now.
Comment on Crucial is shutting down — because Micron wants to sell its RAM and SSDs to AI companies instead
whoisearth@lemmy.ca 9 hours agoA fun reminder that during the pandemic, before AI, there was a backlog in new cars because all the crucial chips were unavailable due to an increase in bullshit like wifi enabled toasters.
It has nothing to do with AI. Consumers are asking for this shit and companies are delivering.

Customers aren’t asking for this shit. The issue is that companies don’t seem to try to deliver products customers want anymore. Instead they hop on some bullshit trend to try to appeal to investors to buy their stocks to pump it up because they want to show they are the next big thing in innovation.
