Static website using S3 Route53 and CloudFront displaying outdated content

After initially uploading the website, it was working perfectly. After some time, however, I uploaded a new index.html to my S3 bucket and saved the changes. After opening my website, it's still showing me the content of my old index.html page. Why?

Eventually CloudFront will pick up the new version (it caches files at many locations, which is the whole point of using it), but it can take a while for updated files to be distributed - usually longer than I like, so I either issue an AWS CLI command to create a CloudFront invalidation, or do it thru the console.
