GitHub is once again down

GitHub goes down at least once a week as I said before. [0] thanks to Copilot, Tay.ai and Zoe chatbots wrecking the platform instead of humans maintaining it.

If there was a prediction market for when GitHub experiences an outage every week, then you would make a lot of money.

9% ? /s (though To be honest I genuinely wouldn't be surprised if things go down so bad too at this point either)

What has changed at GitHub to cause this?
