Summary

  • OpenAI’s ChatGPT service is experiencing problems with its performance, with many users unable to access the site since the morning of June 7 (Eastern Time).
  • ChatGPT’s status has now been updated to ‘partial outage’ from the previous status of ‘elevated error rates’
  • It seems the problems are not confined to ChatGPT, as users of Perplexity (an AI search engine service that makes use of OpenAI models) are also experiencing problems.
  • Both platforms are undergoing investigation by OpenAI to identify the causes and find solutions, but it is not yet known when the platforms will be back online.
