Failures. We all suffer from them: payment apps that don't work, websites that are down, or software that doesn't cooperate. Often just irritating, but for businesses, downtime is a huge cost whose bill can run into millions. Some outages can spread like an oil slick: We saw this in the Flevoland power failure, for example: due to a fuse not working, a short circuit could occur. Subsequently, a fire occurred, trains did not run, and locks could not function. See for the entire UT news item: Preventing failures with artificial intelligence (utwente.nl)
