ChatGPT outage: OpenAI’s ChatGPT is facing issues in generating responses as several users shared that they are unable to use the artificial intelligence-powered chatbot through a mobile app for Android. When attempting to use ChatGPT, an error message pops up stating that the server is facing problems. On the iOS app and web version of ChatGPT, the AI chatbot is unable to generate responses and shows a “Request Timeout” message.

Users also shared that they were facing the outage on social media platforms as they complained that ChatGPT is currently facing an outage. Users on X (formerly Twitter) reported that the AI chatbot is not working for them.

ChatGPT also faced similar problems last month when around 91 per cent of users reportedly faced issues in accessing it across platforms. The company acknowledged the outage at the time and said that the outage was caused by “increased latency and errors affecting both ChatGPT and APIs”.
