We’re mainly just waiting for the AI bubble to pop, and it’s looking more and more likely every day as companies are slowly realising the only people that like AI are the companies selling the solutions.
You are assuming it’s going to break if it gets no better it is already useful and may well get much cheaper after all the dotcom bubble breaking didn’t eliminate computing
Prices are never going to go down. Never in the history of ever has a capitalist reduced their prices after a “crisis” causes an extended period of higher prices. What might happen is that they don’t keep increasing prices for a while to allow consumer purchasing power to rise (basically you have to start earning more money).
Idk man. Shit’s so wild, they might never go down (fascism, ww3, complete meltdown of capitalistic markets due to french revolution levels of incompetent wealth inequality in some specific third world country out in the west, or some wild interpolation of them all).
Or they might go down next week when some specific big AI company starts selling off datacenter parts (get ready for dirt cheap racks)
Though, with datacenter parts, problem is, they’re mostly completely useless for consumers, because of hardware vendor lock in, most likely.
I guess in the end, I am happy I bought more storage space, gpu, and replacement cpu when I needed it, even if it seemed a bit high (now it’s cosmic)
I know you’re just a person but when do you think prices might go back down? I feel like we’re looking at a decade out honestly

Yep, especially because chip manufacturing has such a massive barrier to enter.
