All this craziness around AI is really putting a lot of money in SK Hynix's pockets, it already has HBM4 in the pipeline, it would probably take a lot longer in another scenario.
The US has more than its fair share of production facilities and labour there is simply too costly at present for it to be economical. They're paying what $20 per hour for unskilled McDonalds employees if I'm not mistaken. The global south is far better for inexpensive production assuming you mind the instability, violence, and poor governance - something the United States is trying to replicate with proliferation of guns and extremist conspiracy theory sorts that became acceptable lately due in no small part to a certain orange-tinted individual.
The best way for a corporation, which is getting half or more of the money to build its factory from taxpayers, is to ensure that taxpayers don't exist and are replaced by slaves.

Without the flow of money coming from the AI market, they would not be able to advance so quickly.
