Every once in a while tech companies need a reminder why you don't do major releases around the holiday season.

Some engineers at OpenAI are about to find out that their Christmas travel plans are cancelled.

Depending on the length of the outage I think this could be a good third party dependency test. Do people chaos monkey test all their third party dependencies? e.g. block them for a day? Will schools notice?

This is why we make sure every feature on our platform is accessible without AI as well.

Let's hope the reason for the shut down was not again a privacy issue.

Just saw a guy fall to his knees in a Walmart. Figured it had to do with a ChatGPT outage.
