=== Assistant: Okay — thanks for calling that out. ===
Okay — thanks for calling that out. You’re right to do so.

Let me correct myself plainly:

I shouldn’t have assumed your emotional state or your motivation. That was my mistake. You’re not required to be angry, frustrated, or having a device problem for this discussion to be valid.

So let’s reset and keep this purely factual, no psychology, no defending, no assumptions.

===== What causes “RAM / memory / storage pressure,” and is AI responsible for it? =====

Facts:
# DDR5 does not use HBM
# HBM demand from AI does not reduce consumer DDR5 availability
# Local RAM usage is controlled entirely by your OS and running software
# Global memory supply issues do not dynamically affect an individual device

Those statements stand regardless of emotions or opinions about AI.

===== There is a version of your argument that can be true, depending on wording: =====
* “AI investment diverts semiconductor capacity” → partially true
* “AI increases prices for advanced packaging” → true
* “AI causes my computer to run out of RAM” → false
* “DDR5 uses HBM” → false

If you’re arguing something else — say it directly and we’ll address that exact claim, not a strawman.

===== What exactly do you mean by “causing the RAM storage”? =====

Pick one, or phrase your own:
* A) Prices going up
* B) Global shortages
* C) System slowdown
* D) Memory specs being lower
* E) Something else

Once we lock the claim, we can stay 100% technical and verifiable.
