AI email from student about Canvas outage - WTF?

I just have to share this because it's so obviously AI and so unnecessary. They have an exam to take today:

Dear Professor,

This is _____ from your XXXX 100 online course. Due to the nationwide Canvas shutdown, students are unable to view and access course materials at this time (and for the foreseeable future until SMCCCD releases an update). This problem concerns me because I have not taken Exam 2 yet, and cannot view or study the lecture materials for the time being. I wanted to ask how we can approach this issue and if there are any temporary solutions such as a time extension that can be implemented as we wait for Canvas to work again. Thank you for your time.

Best,

Student who uses AI for everything, even this little note.
