About The AI Memory Boom | Why DRAM Prices Are Surging

The AI Memory Boom | Why DRAM Prices Are Surging For years, DRAM was one of the quieter corners of the semiconductor industry — a highly commoditized market where capacity expanded steadily and prices generally trended lower. Artificial intelligence has changed that equation. In this episode, SemiAnalysis analyst Ray Wang explains why AI systems consume enormous amounts of memory and how surging demand is reshaping the global DRAM market. As memory costs rise, manufacturers and consumer-facing companies are being forced to rethink production, pricing and supply. The conversation explores how major producers are responding to the boom, when the market could finally rebalance, and whether Chinese memory manufacturers can close the gap with dominant Korean players such as Samsung and SK Hynix. What looks like a shortage of computer memory may actually reveal something much bigger: AI is beginning to reshape the economics of the entire semiconductor supply chain.

India's little-known minority - The Siddi and the Olympic dream

Nimeksha Siddi is 18 years old and India's sprinting hope for the 2028 Olympics. Nimeksha belongs to the Siddi ethnic group, whose daily lives are marked by racism and exclusion. The 18-year-old sprinter Nimeksha flies down the home straight like a bolt of lightning. She's a Siddi. Hardly anyone knows about her people, not even in India, where the Siddi have lived for 500 years. Her ancestors came to India from Africa as slaves or mercenaries. It's not known how many Siddi live in India. They all have the surname Siddi. They are Muslim, Christian or Hindu - and are often mistaken for tourists by many Indians. Most live in poverty, scraping by as day laborers, gathering plants, honey or rubber. In 1983, India's Minister for Sport launched a program aimed at tapping into the community's athletic potential. Children from Siddi villages were recruited and coached in running. One of the most successful was Kamala Siddi. At the age of 15, she set a national record in the pentathlon, won bronze and gold at international level, and was rewarded with
