A technical glitch has taken down ChatGPT, the popular AI-powered chatbot, affecting millions of users worldwide. The outage that happened today has also affected OpenAI’s API and other services, causing widespread disruption.
According to a website, namely Downdetector, which tracks the outages, it has reported a significant rise in complaints about ChatGPT being offline, with over 1000 reports filed. Users have taken to social media to express their frustration and confusion over the slow login processes and degraded performance.
One user on Twitter said, “I am unable to access my chat history, and it’s causing me a lot of inconvenience,” urging them to fix this problem as soon as possible. The outage has not only affected individuals but also firms that rely heavily on ChatGPT for their work.
This is the third time ChatGPT has faced a major outage since December. The AI platform went down twice in December due to technical issues, leaving users concerned about the reliability of the app.
As the outage continues, users are eagerly waiting for a resolution, demonstrating the importance of a reliable technology infrastructure. However, OpenAI has yet to comment on the sudden outage, but the users are expecting a swift fix to get ChatGPT up and running again.
