Also, DRAM pricing might make this product DOA. That is unless Valve has already secured an allocation.

If they are at the point of announcing it, they have probably secured it for at least a year or two in advance.

Which bread line do you think will be longer the one if AI does pan out and can do the majority of white collar jobs or the one where it doesn't pan out and we have a big market correction?

I think it will be like the dot com bubble, where both happens.

AI is not useless and will have significant influence an will replace headcounts in white collar jobs.

AND its an investment bubble that can never hope to yield a return to warrant the current market valuation. The physics of energy production and semiconductor manufacturing prevents us from having enough computing power for a human level genAI. When it pops, it will be massive.

Hopefully this will nudge developers to towards eventually supporting linux more. Like anti cheat (I don't use, so no skin off my back), other game launchers, devs stop using TMP requirments in games etc... I think this is the little nudge in the right direction already, and will pay off soon.
