This is probably a long shot, but I'll ask anyway: do any MS SQL Server folks use Machine Learning services?

And more specifically, does the "SQL Server Launchpad" service ever unexpectedly stop?

The "Recovery" configuration for SQL Server-related services (pictured) is usually good enough to ensure they don't have to be restarted manually.

But not in this case for the Launchpad service.

Me: I don't use ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, or any other chat bots. In fact, I don't consciously choose to use any "AI" tools. So it's hard for me to comment on the predictions in this article. (Cont'd)
