This article is from June 11th. Why are you posting it here now?
Not everyone is perpetually online budd, 1st time hearing about it
What about my comment even remotely implied that I somehow don't understand that? Sure appreciate the patronizing "budd" thrown in too.
To be more direct: I feel that OP should have edited the title or noted this was an older article in the body text of the post. An act that would take 30 seconds max. By not doing that, this post is somewhat misleading due to the wording and I initially thought that this was a second outage in one month.
With the context that this happened a week or two ago and was non-impactful enough that no one posted anything about it to this comm in a more timely fashion, to me that really blunts the main thrust that the outage was impactful in any way.
In my opinion that opens an interesting conversation topic: OpenAI went down for a full day this past month, but what was the true impact? (Implying that AI is far less widespread or business critical than the hype machine implies)
By just posting this article here with no editorializing of the title or comments by the OP, it come across more to me as a cheap dunk on OpenAI instead. Absolutely deserved, but otherwise just kind of "junk food" for the comm.
Edit: and for anyone that wants to keep up with this sort of stuff better, I reccomend the techtakes comm on awful.systems. The actual owner/author of this blog site is regularly active in that lemmy community and usually posts his new articles there when he releases them.
Holy shit, who cares?
