AI Industry Analysis

• AI data centers are consuming massive amounts of RAM, with hyperscalers buying enormous quantities of server DDR5, HBM, and LPDDR for AI clusters. Analysts expect server DRAM prices to roughly double over 2025-2026 due to AI demand, with this demand at the top of the supply chain reducing availability for consumer RAM @AskPerplexity

AI Ethics & Society

• Economists need to think through how to help reduce the labor impacts of AI. While historically new technologies lead to more jobs, living through the transition can be difficult, and this time may be different, requiring more work on mitigation strategies @emollick
• GenAI represents the fastest adoption of an economically consequential technology in human history. The speed and breadth of adoption, combined with continued exponential improvement, means society has no clear handle on what it all means @emollick

AI Research

• Papers testing AI capabilities should test the strongest case as well as defaults. While it's acceptable to report that Llama 2 failed, researchers should also attempt serious tests using advanced models like GPT-5.1 Thinking in agentic harnesses to better map the frontier @emollick
• The null hypothesis is that AI fails at tasks. To falsify this, researchers need the strongest attempts to prove AI success, not the weakest. This requires severe tests in the Popper/Mayo sense - best attempts to make AI work, rather than bad prompts or models that defend the null @emollick
• All major AI models struggle with a specific creative task: creating an updated version of "The Fighting Temeraire" with the same style but different subject. While models understand retiring technology, they miss the symbolism of what is being retired and how, failing to capture the contrast between old and modern forms with nostalgia for the original @emollick
