HealthRanger(@HealthRanger):The Asus spark box I bought a week ago for $4000 is now $6200. It was the last "affordable" but capable AI hardware that could be sourced. This is all due to the HBM shortage caused primarily by the insane AI infrastructure investment bubble which is made worse by the helium shortage from Trump's war of choice against Iran. Global supply chains are being wrecked. Before long, you won't even be able to AFFORD local compute at any useful level.
