We have stopped reading or even looking up official documentation

I mean... I still do it, but it's not like before LLMs I used those as the primary source. I just googled issues and checked stackoverflow first, then moved to the documentation (which is often a mess in smaller libraries).

What happened with AWS outage recently is only a brief foreshadow of what might eventually come to pass if this trend continues

Is there a source that the issue was caused by AI tools? I've found out it was a DNS issue but there's no mention of the root cause, at least that I've found, nor AI or LLM mentions. And it's not like we didn't have outages before chatgpt
