When companies are not able to produce enough to satisfy demand and are actively stopping selling to certain sectors and harming them, they should lose their patents. RAM companies are actively harming all of us by selling their products to the AI companies and leaving us all without RAM, so we should encourage alternatives.

US frontier AI companies steal petabytes of copyrighted material.

Oh shucks 😂

Oh no! RAM prices might go down! Won't somebody think of the poor shareholders?

Samsung uses monopoly tactics and government support to bankrupt smaller companies and then raise prices. They're scum.

RAM is so important to the world economy that their patents should be made public.

he he nice, fuck the ram cartel

In a better world, all of these technologies that get stolen by various corpo espionage and reverse engineering teams would be freely shared with the world so everyone can benefit from them, and people not in the dev teams might have improvements they can suggest.

But instead we have a bunch of rich adult children who would rather take the ball and go home because they don't think they've recieved enough praise for bringing it, and wanting to charge everyone just to look at it.

It's not a great metaphor, but honestly dealing with companies and governments feels a lot like dealing with children you aren't allowed to discipline or even talk sternly to because their parents have forbidden you from interfering.

Guessing they won’t get much in the way of public sympathy given they’re bending consumers over the barrel. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Oh no—anyway

Oh NOW you care about stealing intellectual property!

Fuck off. What's good for the goose is good for the gander, AI assholes.

Proving all this in court could give Samsung a powerful weapon moving forward. Legal experts believe the company might take sworn statements straight to the US International Trade Commission, a body with the authority to block foreign products from entering the country entirely.

Which does not help because not every country will ban them and The other manufacturers will then have less demand and therefore have to reduce their prices in order to continue selling the same amount

Edit: Doing so may slow the rate of the price decline in the US, but it will not stop it.

I couldn't care less. Just make cheaper products with near or on par performance and you're okay in my book.

Oh nooooo China will have to.....wait what will they have to do?

Yeah, whatever, anyway are they making loads of RAM? Can I have 64GB of Ram for £300 again please?

Good. Fuck Samsung.

Good for them. Fuck samsung

cry more

Oh no, I'm so terribly upset. /s

Good. Now also steal from Nvidia please. It would be so freaking funny!

But if China proves that US did industry spionage, what happens then?

Sucks they got caught
