ChatGPT outage: Many people worldwide are presently unable to use OpenAI’s ChatGPT due to a Cloudflare outage. Cloudflare, the worldwide cloud network that enables many websites on the internet, is facing several issues. As a result, a number of sites are impacted, including ChatGPT and the social media site X.
The majority of outage complaints specifically mention ChatGPT failing or not loading in the middle of a session. 90 percent of users are complaining about problems with ChatGPT, as per breakdown on Downdetector. This includes unexpected disconnections, session failures, blank displays, and the inability to give responses.
