Microsoft Outlook/365 still down after 12 hours

I would bet my lunch that the failing code is immediately attributable to AI, but the root cause is a failure of hiring, leadership, accountability, QA. If it was bad AI code, it was still deployed by a bad developer. The buck stops with us humans.

I know that we like to pretend otherwise but leadership are humans, too :-p

The problem is that AI can generate thousands lines of code....but I can read only few hundred a day with full focus.

It is much easier to read the code you wrote.
