The new AI system, SMART, was at this point only going to perform route optimization, a thing AI/ML should excel at, and human controllers had to agree. It was never to take over from real ATC controllers.
OTOH, one hell of a coincidence that they rolled out stage one on the 10th and 3 days later we got serious problems. My bet? The new system was fine in isolation but broke older shit when released.
