Micron is leaving the consumer memory market, including its Crucial brand, to focus on high-bandwidth memory (HBM) for AI data centers. The company will continue selling consumer products until February 2026. The move comes amid a global chip shortage, and HBM sales are growing fast, making AI-focused memory more profitable than consumer products. This and more on the Tech Field Day News Rundown with Tom Hollingsworth and Alastair Cooke.
