Broken Discord Invite Links

[michaelpierre]

Issue Description:
The Discord invite links provided in the README.md appear to be invalid or expired.

Affected Links:
Displayed Link: https://aka.ms/genai-discord?WT.mc_id=academic-105485-koreyst
Hovered Link: https://discord.gg/kzRShWzttr

Issue:
Clicking the first link redirects to an invalid Discord invite.
When hovering over the link, it shows the second URL, which also leads to a broken invite.
Discord displays the following error message:
"Invite Invalid. This invite may be expired, or you might not have permission to join."

Suggested Fix:
Please verify if the Discord invite needs to be updated.
If the Discord server is no longer available, consider updating the documentation to reflect this.
Let me know if you'd like me to submit a PR to update the link once a new one is available. Thanks!

@michaelpierre thanks for reporting this we are unable to reproduce this?

The link https://discord.gg/kzRShWzttr is correct.

Can you confirm which language readme.md file are you using and provide a screenshot of the issue?

Unable to reproduce. Since this is a channel invite, if you are already in the server it can sometimes should as invalid.

*Maybe the issue is my Brave browser...* *Description:* When attempting to join a Discord server using an invite link, the following error message appears in Brave Browser: "Invite Invalid. This invite may be expired, or you might not have permission to join." However, the same invite link works without any issues in Google Chrome. *Steps to Reproduce:* 1. Open Brave Browser (Version 1.75.175 Chromium: 133.0.6943.54, Official Build, 64-bit). 2. Navigate to the Discord invite link. 3. Observe the error message: *"Invite Invalid. This invite may be expired, or you might not have permission to join."* 4. Open Google Chrome (Version 133.0.6943.98, Official Build, 64-bit). 5. Navigate to the same Discord invite link. 6. Observe that the invite works correctly in Chrome. *Expected Behavior:* The invite link should function the same way in Brave as it does in Google Chrome, allowing users to join the server without errors. *Actual Behavior:* Brave displays the *"Invite Invalid"* error message, preventing access to the Discord server. *Environment:* - *Brave Version:* 1.75.175 Chromium: 133.0.6943.54 (Official Build) (64-bit) - *Google Chrome Version:* 133.0.6943.98 (Official Build) (64-bit) - *Operating System:* [Insert your OS and version] *Additional Information:* - Tried disabling Brave Shields, but the issue persists. - Tested in a private window with no extensions, but the error still occurs. - Cleared cache and cookies, but the issue remains. - Other invite links also exhibit the same issue in Brave. Could you investigate whether this is a Brave-specific compatibility issue with Discord invite links?
