Global Microsoft outage 2 days after a vast Patch Tuesday with mostly AI-written code.
FAA forced to ground all domestic flights in America one day after launching new AI-powered tools.
I mean, it’s probably just coincidental, right?
I think we had big outrages before too, I myself caused a outrage of golf.se in 2007 because I ran a cross product SQL query on the production database as a test.
The difference to me seems to be that before AI people understood the systems and were able to fix it within minutes, today people don’t understand them because they didn’t make them so it takes at least hours or even days to make the AI to fix it.
Don’t forget the National Weather Service (website?) now too…
Edit: seems that NWS denies there was an issue, but says that there was incorrect information stating that on their website? Confusing. https://www.reuters.com/technology/us-national-weather-service-reports-nationwide-internet-communications-issues-2026-11-13/
I mean they’ve had their funding cut left and right and actively sabotaged by the current regime. They don’t even need AI to have issues
Didn’t hear about this one, geeze.
That does seem quite possible. Between those and the NVIDA cloak-and-dagger executive shake-up, the AI bubble seems to be collapsing from all sides.
Tanker into a cruise ship on Mississippi river. Fucked up day.
Then there was the hospital strike in Kyiv too, but that was less likely AI and more warlord/billionaire fuckery
Russia strikes hospital in central Kyiv after SpaceX system falters again
That one pisses me off. At this point Musk is just colluding with the Russian military to coordinate outages. What a gigantic piece of shit, I hope he gets a criminal conviction for all the damage he has done.
One can only hope, the world has no need for a trillionaire.
They’ll never admit it. They’ll probably just blame India (that’s what I would do).
