ChatGPT, Codex, and ChatGPT Business are all failing to work correctly due to a general outage. OpenAI has launched an investigation and is working on a solution.
ChatGPT is struggling with an outage, with thousands of users reporting issues while using the AI tool. According to Downdetector, 1,200 reports have been made in Belgium. Users are having trouble logging in or are no longer receiving responses. The APIs were also affected, but are reportedly functioning again at this time.
Issues with multiple apps
Users are experiencing outages when logging in, generating images, searching, using ChatGPT Atlas, loading conversations, and executing prompts. The problems are occurring in multiple regions simultaneously, indicating a broader platform outage. Codex, OpenAI’s development tool, was also affected, though the APIs there are reportedly still working.
Working on a solution
OpenAI is investigating the matter. The widespread outage is impacting users worldwide. ChatGPT is used by many organizations to streamline processes. While the workday has ended in Europe, the outage could have a significant impact on productivity in the US.
According to OpenAI, users of ChatGPT Business, a corporate subscription for ChatGPT, are unable to make account upgrades or changes, such as adding new users, due to the outage. This issue has been ongoing since earlier today. OpenAI indicates that a fix has been rolled out and that the recovery is being actively monitored.
