Leap Second to be Abolished in 2027

TL;DR AI-generated Starting May 20, 2027, the leap second will be abolished and replaced by a continuous Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). This aims to prevent disruptions in computer systems and critical infrastructure due to fluctuations in Earth's rotation. UTC may eventually differ from astronomical time by up to one hour.
