  @StockMKTNewz @Outlook just have the worse downtime yesterday that constraint access for millions hotmail and outlook ios users. It has been >24hrs and the access issue has NOT been resolved. Installing AI agent should not be their priority for right now. They should focus on restoring access for their users first!
