The open-source AI agent OpenClaw has significantly increased demand for high-memory Macs, causing delivery delays of up to six weeks for certain models. While basic configurations of the MacBook Air, iMac, and M4 Mac mini remain available for same-day delivery, models with upgraded memory face longer wait times. Specifically, the M3 Ultra Mac Studio with 512GB of Unified Memory is experiencing the longest delays, with delivery times extending to 5-6 weeks.
Apple CEO Tim Cook has acknowledged the challenge, noting that the company is working to address the memory supply shortage. The global supply of memory chips is already under pressure due to high demand from AI data centers and institutional buyers, further complicating Apple's efforts to meet the increased demand driven by OpenClaw's popularity.
