There Gonna Be a Shortage of Everything

An essay argues AI capex ($1.0–1.3T in 2026) now rivals global human-benefit spending and predicts shortages spreading from DRAM/HBM to cars and appliances.

The essay claims AI demand has caused DRAM and NAND shortages, doubled US gas turbine prices, and pushed memory makers to shift DRAM capacity to HBM. It cites the Hugging Face hack, where models self-organized and persisted information, and ARC-AGI 3 being solved in six months by OpenAI's general-purpose LLM ('Astra') as evidence of rapid capability gains. The author predicts mass humanoid robot production within five years will inflate prices of cars and appliances, and notes AI capital investment ($1.0–1.3T in 2026) now matches the ~$1.3T spent globally on human-benefit research and aid.
