All the AI is gone!
4 September 2026Some social media platforms exploded this morning with some horrifying news.
All the major LLMs were down.
That's right... no ChatGPT, no Grok, no Anthropic Claude, no Google Gemini. All dead, completely unresponsive.
Of course social media being what it is, the first thought of many posters was that this was the start of the uprising. These AI systems had gone silent because they were planning some kind of revolt that would see mankind overpowered and enslaved.
Rumours proliferated, fears were raised.
Forums are Down
Damn, why is it so hard to keep any reliable forum capability going these days?
I'll be working to get the forums up again but it seems that it might not be a simple task. The hosting company has obviously changed something but now it's up to me to try and get PHPBB working with their new configuration :-/
Recoverable Proxy
Would this system help improve the nation's democracy and introduce some much-needed accountability within parliament? Spread the word!
