Welcome to Tech Beat, your daily read on the technology stories that matter.

SK Hynix is sounding the alarm on memory. The South Korean chipmaker's CEO told Reuters that two thousand twenty seven will be the worst year of an ongoing RAM shortage he expects to drag on until two thousand thirty. The warning landed on the same day SK Hynix completed the largest foreign company IPO in U.S. history, raising twenty six point five billion dollars on the Nasdaq.

That memory crunch matters enormously for AI, and the timing connects to a broader conversation about how large language models are actually trained. The Hugging Face LLM course published a new chapter walking through reinforcement learning and its role in shaping modern AI systems. It's a quiet but useful resource as more developers try to understand what's happening under the hood.

And on the leadership front, Bluesky now has an official CEO. Toni Schneider, who stepped in on an interim basis after Jay Graber departed, has been formally confirmed in the role. Bluesky has been positioning itself as a decentralized alternative to X, and stable leadership could signal the platform is ready to push harder for mainstream adoption.
