It’s not just you: ChatGPT is down for many users right now. Here’s the latest on OpenAI’s confirmed outage.
oh, ok.
That icon looks like a stylized asshole.
So does their CEO.
6 spokes
What does it mean?
It means the truth is out there, but up someone’s cornhole. Keep searching my friend.
First of many outages as they realize how much cash they are burning and can’t stay afloat.
My company locked down our AI models to tech leads and chief engineers because the average user could save a lot more money by just using Google.
Rabbit: 2, spicy hay: 0 !
Oh no! They’ll have to actually think!

Good. Let’s hope it stays down.
OH NO!, Anyway…
I know people who will be unable to get information now
Works fine here.
It’d be great if it didn’t though.
Hey man I would totally agree with you, if it was 20-30 years ago and search engines actually gave relevant results instead of commercial SEO garbage. Which in my opinion is a hell of a lot worse than the worst AI slop…
Stop encouraging it.
I just prefer it to search engines these days. Chatgpt will give you good basic answers with direct links to citations.
Most search engines just produce endless commercial spam. I can instruct chatgpt to basically be Google scholar on steroids and get highly relevant academic results, which I then go read. “Based on highly regarded scientific literature like nature, please find me links regarding …” Works great! In you need, “no summaries, no conjecture. I don’t want your thoughts about this. I just want highly cited links/literature. Please act like a good search engine chat GPT.” And it generally does pretty great, minimizing me having to wade through shit-tons of SEO garbage.
I’m not having much discussion with it, except for fun/novelty.
It’s definitely not me. I don’t use that shit for anything. I hope it stays down forever.
But how will Microslop spit out any code today? Oh well. Anyway.
“it’s not just you”? It’s not even me. I wonder how many complaints there were - would be a good metric of actual usage
Kind of. As long as you understand that people like me exist.
I ordered a big mac from McDonalds one time. I got a chicken sandwich instead.
I was sitting inside. I could easily have went back to the counter and said something.
Instead, I just went with it. Guess I’m having a chicken sandwich today!
Now, that being said, I also don’t use AI. So, I would have never noticed it being down. But hypothetically, if I tried to use AI, and it didn’t work, I’d just do something else instead.
So it won’t be the number of complaints = the number of users affected. But it does give you somewhat of a scale.
And just like that world productivity slipped backwards about 500 years…or…wow, no one noticed.
