Description:
Here's everything we know so far about 'increased error rates'

FULL STORY ======================================================================

Whether you were asking ChatGPT for some help with an email, to give you the best recipe possible for some chicken noodle soup, or any other number of queries, it's clear that the AI chatbot is having some issues today. And OpenAI's already confirmed something is up.

In a post shortly after 2:40PM ET on its status page, OpenAI writes, "We have identified that users are experiencing elevated errors for the impacted services."

The good news is it is working on mitigation, but given that Down Detector reports are increasing, and I, as well as a few of my colleagues, can't get ChatGPT to respond, we're spinning up a live blog to track this ChatGPT outage.

So read on for the latest, and TechRadar has reached out to OpenAI for more details and even a resolution timeline on this ChatGPT issue.

So here's what ChatGPT looks like when you ask it a query, and yes, it's a
bit empty with the circle just constantly spinning on mobile; it also looks the same on the web app right now. (Image credit: Future) OpenAI confirms an issue

Here's a live look at the status page, showing that OpenAI is working to fix the issue with ChatGPT elevated errors. No specifics on what is causing the outage as of yet, though. Past ChatGPT outages have lasted anywhere from a
few hours to many, many hours, so here's hoping this is a quick fix. (Image credit: Future)
