Global memory chip shortage raises electronics prices; impacts PCs, smartphones, and likely continues until 2026.

A severe global shortage of memory chips is sending shockwaves through the electronics industry, causing prices to rise across consumer devices. Experts warn that this shortage will continue until at least 2026, affecting everything from PCs to smartphones.

Major manufacturers, including Samsung Electronics, have reported record profits but caution that rising memory chip prices could put further pressure on the sector. This shortage is largely driven by AI technology demands, forcing companies to rethink production priorities.

Consumers should expect higher costs for electronics in the coming months, with price increases likely to continue through the end of 2026.

AI safety experts warn rapid advancements could outstrip humanity’s ability to manage risks, threatening jobs and global stability.

A leading AI safety researcher has raised the alarm over the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence, warning that technology may soon outpace humanity’s ability to implement effective safeguards. British scientists say the world might not have enough time to prepare for the safety risks posed by cutting-edge AI systems.

AI capabilities are reportedly advancing exponentially, with performance in some areas doubling every eight months. Researchers predict that within just five years, machines could outperform humans in most economically valuable tasks, raising concerns about the stability of jobs, the economy, and national security.

Experts are calling for urgent, increased research into AI behaviour and control mechanisms. Without stronger oversight and safety measures, they warn that advanced AI could become difficult—or even impossible—to manage, potentially creating serious global risks.
