    The AI rollout might be innocent, but deploying a billion dollar system into critical infrastructure days before a nationwide ground stop is spectacularly bad timing.

      It was absolutely the implementation of slop services in place of well-understood, unbroken, functional technology.

      They just tested to see how fast they could ground everyone, and how panicked everyone would be and for how long. This is valuable data for martial law soon.

          I don’t doubt any of these disruptions so close to each other are planned for by malicious intent.

            911 service was down as well. To many important systems all going down same day? Come coucidents don’t happen that well.

        Okay I know so many people on Lemmy like to overreact but seriously, that’s so off. We already have that data. It was called 9/11, happened 25 years ago, and they brought the entire country to a stop pretty damn quick. So no, they didn’t need the data as a test run, it already exists.
