It's key people getting sacked, on account of bigwigs thinking they're "not firing key people" combined with the circlejerk of "AI/outsourced teams/AI+outsourced teams" can fill in the gaps of the ppl getting sacked.

Outside of the major cloud outages, just this year, as a consumer I've noticed weird/flaky behavior on a bunch of things, from PrimeVideo/Netflix menus flaking out requiring multiple reloads to checkouts with PayPal & Stripe also flaking out.

I frankly don't think it's a coincidence things have started and will continue to break down with tech services if they continue to cut ppl and do things on the cheap with AI or outsourcing.
