The move aligns with Huawei's broader push for semiconductor self-sufficiency, including its in-house HBM (HiBL 1.0) for Ascend AI chips. Meanwhile, China's largest DRAM maker CXMT is rapidly scaling production and could hold ~17% of global DRAM supply by 2028. While more Chinese DRAM supply could theoretically ease prices, the primary driver appears to be securing captive memory for AI chips rather than relieving consumer RAM costs. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
