The semiconductor industry will soon abandon its pursuit of Moore's law. Now things could get a lot more interesting.
Moore's law
Moore's law is a historical trend of integrated circuit development: the density of transistors can be doubled every two years. It was posited by Gordon Moore in 1965. Several experts, including Moore himself, have predicted that the trend will end by 2025.

U.S. Intel
The U.S. taking an equity stake in Intel is a terrible idea; it also happens to be the least bad idea to make Intel Foundry viable.

Please don’t tell anyone: we aren’t just open sourcing all the models. We are doing the unspeakable: open sourcing all the gpu kernels too. Making them run on multivendor consumer hardware, and opening the door to folks who can beat our work.Plz keep it quiet, ok? 😉— Chris Lattner (@clattner_llvm) March 24, 2026

I told y’all this is the move. Heterogenous hardware is the way forward. Large cheap pools of mixed memory + specialized accelerators (Nvidia GPUs, DGX Spark, Cerebras wafers) The next year will be dominated by solutions that split the stack. - 3000$ for a used Mac Studio… https://t.co/zMlScSnJ0X— 0xSero (@0xSero) April 1, 2026

Will expensive RAM change how we code?
Due to shortages, RAM is very expensive right now. And it will probably continue according to (somewhat optimistic) forecasts.
DRAM prices mooning will hurt everyone and might cause a consumer tech recession on its own in the next 12 months even without the AI bubble popping. Hyperscalers are going to jack up prices for cloud resources, electronics manufacturers (Apple, Samsung, etc.) will raise prices, this is gonna hurt.
