Due to the high consumption of memory chips by AI data centers, manufacturers and analysts warn of potential price increases for consumer technology products. Smartphones, laptops, and other gadgets may become more expensive. Chip and electronics manufacturers report that their production facilities are operating at full capacity to meet the demands of the AI sector. This creates a supply shortage for consumer goods, which will inevitably lead to higher prices for end-users. "We are witnessing unprecedented pressure on supply chains," stated one industry expert. "Priority is given to major clients, making it increasingly difficult for smaller manufacturers to compete."
