I mention that because when it comes to news about the global memory market, you might just think that every day is now a Woesday instead.
Enter Dell's CEO into the fray with an insight as to how things are going to fare over the next few years, and it's going to be worse: 625 times worse.That's according to IT Home and Jukan on X, which claims that at a Bank of America event, Michael Dell said that "As memory per accelerator and system scale expand simultaneously in AI infrastructure, a structure is forming where total memory demand increases by approximately 625 times" (machine translation).Dell arrives at this figure by noting that the most popular AI accelerator in 2022, Nvidia's H100, sported 80 GB of HBM3 (High Bandwidth Memory), but that this figure is estimated to rise to 2 TB by 2028: a fraction over 25 times more DRAM.He then apparently said that the rate at which AI accelerators are implemented in data centers will increase by a factor of 25 over the same period
