In a message Shared through the official Arduino blog“Costs for Arduino memory components have doubled” in the past six months alone, “driven by continued demand for AI applications,” says Marcelo Magonchi, the company’s chief product officer. The company has so far been able to postpone the price hike “thanks to support from Qualcomm.” I bought an Arduino last OctoberBut “with no near-term signs of improvement in memory supply or pricing, continuing to absorb these costs is no longer possible.”
