minus-squareFmstrat@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up8·edit-211 小时前A couple of facts I can give you, interpolate what you will: The FAA comms network has been in place since 2013. Those routers were working fine yesterday. AI gets released, routers no work anymore. The AI SMART system does not “do” anything, it makes recommendations to ATCs. My pretty well-informed opinions: The AI system most likely uses the comm network to distribute those reccos. It was probably overloaded, with cascading impacts.
