(News18)<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p id=\"0\" class=\"story_para_0\">OpenAI chatbot ChatGPT is experiencing another major global outage with thousands of users across the globe reporting disruptions. Notably, the outage appears to be affecting all regions, with concentrated reports from North America, Europe, and Asia, including India.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">This is the second significant outage this month, raising concerns about the platform\u2019s reliability as demand for AI tools continues to grow.<\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">The outage began early morning on Wednesday, with Downdetector showing a sharp spike in complaints starting around 6:15 AM IST.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">OpenAI\u2019s official status page currently shows investigations ongoing for ChatGPT, with reports of \u201cContent Failed To Load&#8221; errors.<\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">According to Downdetector, a sharp spike in user reports were witnessed with 82 percent of the users reporting an outage with ChatGPT, 12 percent with the website and 6 percent with the app.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">Meanwhile, OpenAI\u2019s status page also confirmed \u201cdegraded performance&#8221; across multiple services, stating, \u201cWe have identified elevated error rates and are working on a mitigation.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\">Soon after several users faced the outage, social media users were quick to respond to the disruption. Many described being stuck at login verification stages or facing blank chat windows. While several developers reported that active sessions using Codex were cut off midway, resulting in lost work.<\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\">Meanwhile, several users relying on Sora for creative video generation also flagged prolonged rendering times and system errors.<\/p>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\">Last month as well, OpenAI\u2019s chatbot, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/tech\/chatgpt-down-thousands-of-users-report-error-messages-amid-widespread-outage-9378064.html\">ChatGPT<\/a>, suffered a significant outage, leaving thousands of users unable to access the service, facing persistent \u201cerror&#8221; messages. The disruption was later acknowledged by OpenAI on its official status page.<\/p>\n<p id=\"9\" class=\"story_para_9\">Earlier in March this year, ChatGPT was down for several users as millions of users flocked to the AI platform to create Studio <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/world\/chatgpt-down-for-several-users-amid-millions-of-studio-ghibli-image-requests-on-openai-platform-9280866.html\">Ghibli<\/a> images, which became an overnight sensation on social media. Widespread errors were reported across the app and its API services.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"authorimg\" src=\"data:image\/jpeg;base64,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\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/news-desk-17918.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">News Desk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The News Desk is a team of passionate editors and writers who break and analyse the most important events unfolding in India and abroad.
