Doubtful. That tool likely suggests "improved" clearances, which a controller can use at their discretion. It likely does not control clearances directly.

And the early reports describe the issue as related to ATC communication infrastructure.

Depends on why systems they've tied into it. I could see an AI system DDOSing legacy systems that are relied on by ATC.
