OpenAI has not acknowledged the issue yet.
The AI powered chatbot from OpenAI faced similar problems last month, where about 91 per cent of users reportedly faced issues in accessing ChatGPT across platforms. The company acknowledged the outage and said that the outage was caused by “increased latency and errors affecting both ChatGPT and APIs”. The service resumed shortly after.
