OpenAI's chatbot, ChatGPT, is currently experiencing a massive server outage, leaving users unable to access the platform. Thousands of users have reported issues, and the website remains inaccessible for all.
Upon attempting to access the chatbot via its website, users are met with a "Bad gateway" banner, preventing them from even logging in. Down Detector, a platform for reporting server outages, has registered a significant spike in problems reported for OpenAI and ChatGPT.
While the website remains down, the mobile app appears to be functioning normally, responding to prompts and generating illustrations without any issues.
OpenAI's Status page, which provides real-time information about any issues, outages, and performance quality, acknowledges the "degraded performance" of ChatGPT. The company has identified the issue and is actively working on a fix.
