ChatGPT is down - OpenAI error messages as hundreds of people report issues with software - now 'partial outage'
To the dismay of students wanting a quick way to write an essay, AI software ChatGPT has gone down.
A message on its homepage said earlier: “We’re currently experiencing issues. Some users are experiencing elevated error rates and latency across the listed services. We are investigating.”
An updated message now describes the problems as a ‘partial outage’ and says: “Some users are experiencing elevated error rates and latency across the listed services. We are continuing to investigate this issue.”
Some users are finding they can now access previous queries, but cannot ask any new questions as the message “Error in message stream” is appearing.
The website Downdetector has logged a spike in complaints this morning, with hundreds of people registering that they cannot use it.
One user said: “Constantly getting ‘Error in message stream’ -- the console warning is ‘Intercom not booted or setup incomplete’."
