He definitely hallucinates, but I think what he might be trying to imply is that if they get more RAM in the data centers it'll be easier to get more RAM for people and lower the over all cost? Which because of capitalism is obvious bullshit. But also, this is the guy that said AI will bring about the end of the world, so I suspect he wants more RAM to speed up that process.

What he implied was that in a shortage of RAM, RAM that's sitting in a PC doing nothing, is useless to most of the world, whereas RAM in a shared resource (data center) gets utilized significantly more. Which is not incorrect. It's just that 1) personal freedom, 2) why should the shared resource be allocated to a private company
