| Raise them, more likely. NVidia says that GPU hardware prices won't decrease until at least 2030. The world is out of fab capacity. |

| Seriously, they’re trying to justify trillion+ IPO’s while setting piles of money on fire, prices aren’t going DOWN. |

| > The world is out of fab capacity. Can anyone expand on this point? I read an article saying that the big AI co's datacentre spend was a bunch of lies because they can't build datacentres at anywhere near the rate they want to. |

| ▲ | stingraycharles 9 days ago | parent | next [-] | | From what I understand it’s mostly TSMC and the memory providers being out of capacity over the next few years. So it’s not even about datacenters. Here’s a Reuters article about TSMC: https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/broadcom-flags-su... So this is actual committed contracts with all kinds of companies such as Apple, NVidia, AMD. Also, the whole reason they can’t build data centers faster is precisely because of this. | |
| ▲ | no-name-here 9 days ago | parent | prev [-] | | > they can't build datacenters at anywhere near the rate they want to That was because the supplies the datacentre needed were constrained - supply-constrained, not end-user demand constrained, so would be in agreement with the GP comment (and the article I read didn't imply anything about lying). |
