As SSDs get faster and L3 caches get larger, will conventional RAM get squeezed out? I know Optane failed a few years back, but that kind of convergence seems inevitable in the long term.

Isn’t it inevitable that conventional RAM will continue to get larger and faster as well?
IDK, I got the impression that while RAM was getting larger and higher-throughput, that was coming at the cost of higher latency.
