Obviously they don't voluntarily pass on cost savings to customers. That's why competition is there for.

Btw, check how much RAM costs today per byte than eg 20 years ago. Even including today's AI driven price increases. Or check how much it costs to keep your house light up nice and bright compared to 50 years ago.
