As users of ChatGPT’s free tier will know, it’s not uncommon for the service to hit capacity and be temporarily unavailable, but today’s issues appear to go beyond that.
For example, on Reddit some paid users of ChatGPT Plus are reporting issues (opens in new tab), under the thread ‘That’s why I paid?’. Other users are reporting missing conversations, with many assuming that they’d been banned from the service. Well, the good news is it’s more likely due to OpenAI’s technical issues today.
If you’re finding it difficult to access ChatGPT today, you’re not alone – the website Downdetector is seeing a high number of reports from users that the service isn’t working.
While those reports have started to tail off, many users – including those on TechRadar – are finding it difficult to open ChatGPT as usual today. We’ll update this liveblog with any official news as soon as we hear back from OpenAI.
