The AI boom is not just GPUs anymore. It is eating the whole memory supply chain.
DDR5-6000 64GB RAM prices exploded from around $200 in early 2025 to over $1,050 by May 2026.
Most feature meetings are more expensive than the feature now.

Reality is a better product manager than speculation.
Spent the flight with OpenClaw turning scattered ideas into motion: calendar management, shaping a client proposal, refining AI MVP positioning, and doing Sidegem sales work.
Airline WiFi has paid internet.

With OpenClaw in my messages, I still have access to a surprisingly functional command center from 11 km up.
Including the ability to tweet this.

OpenClaw is basically a stateful ChatGPT session with superpowers:

• uses skills for specialized workflows
• can run scheduled tasks in the background
• connects to real tools, files, messages, calendars, browsers, etc.
@borna_perak I'm already overbooked. :) I need to book a dedicated office for the next time.
Plus, as you know, my X audience is huge. My post got whole 9 views. Might be the negative record!😂 Not sure what the X algorithm is.
Most AI events are either vague hype or thinly disguised sales. East Bay Tech #2 is trying to be neither. Tomorrow in Lafayette, we talk about what’s actually working with AI right now.
