Is ChatGPT down? OpenAI restores function after ‘experiencing issues’

ChatGPT has been restored after experiencing a major outage on Saturday.

Users worldwide were unable to log in or load conversations.

The outage began at about 5am ET on Saturday (10am GMT).

An OpenAI status page said that the AI tool was “experiencing issues” and had “elevated error rates”.

“We have applied the mitigation and are monitoring the recovery,” it said.

The outage also affected APIs and OpenAI’s coding platform, Codex.

‘Is ChatGPT down?’ was trending on Google, and more than 3,000 users flagged on the website DownDetector that the chatbot was not working on Saturday morning.

Seventy-nine per cent of the outage reports relating to OpenAI were for ChatGPT, while 9 per cent were for the app and 8 per cent were for Codex, according to DownDetector.

An OpenAI status update said that it was “fully operational” again just after midday on Saturday.

“We’re not aware of any issues affecting our systems,” it said.
