And if you believe that, I've got a bridge to sell you...

It makes me question the rest of this article when the author takes that at face value. A DDOS made your LLM say the same thing over and over? Yeah, I don't think so. Also, this new tech, how many device that support “Hey Meta start Live AI” even exist or were "listening" to the stream.

This is about a valid as Zuck saying that it was "Wifi" issues. How often do you have Wifi issue where you can talk to remote servers just fine?
