## Resource

Jesus jiminy cricket! When will the AI madness end?! Component shortages, fueled by AI and data centers, lead to a whopping increase in SteamDeck prices. Upside: You can get one, now. And if you needed proof that AI is going to trigger an extinction event, just check out the recent 15-day test of AI platforms running their own societies. Let's just say, it didn't go well, and you should ABSOLUTELY not trust Grok to do your laundry, much less run your company. Also, Fable delayed.
