ChatGPT is Down
- sophiabits 4y agoThey’ve been achieving ~two 9s for the past few months. Given the surge in traffic they must be receiving, that’s honestly pretty decent.
- PaulKeeble 4y agoThey are doing a lot of calculation per question and request as well, its a big model and presumably uses quite a bit of GPU resources just to run it. They are well past the sort of typical web business and marginal cost per customer that traffic in GPU/memory must be expensive.

- faeriechangling 4y agoSomewhat surprised it didn't happen already.
- M4v3R 4y agoIs it? Currently it's working for me, both the website and the API (for both 3.5 & 4). Yesterday the API was really slow though, sometimes it took like 30 seconds to respond to very simple queries.
- ktta 4y agoIt was 100% down. Logging just refreshed the page. I assumed I was banned so immediately sent an email to support, which was at 1:22 PST, it is now 2:50 PST and I'm able to login.
- Kelteseth 4y agoThey just updated the page: The issue has been identified and a fix has been deployed, we will continue to monitor to ensure the site recovers completely.
- mliker 4y agohow did you get access to the API for 4?
- ktta 4y agoI was logged out right when I started a new chat and couldn't login. Email only support even with paid subscription. I was sure I was banned. Then wondered the implications of this, especially if I couldn't repeal it. This is going to be the most worrisome monopoly in history if GOOGL & META don't get it together quickly.
- siva7 4y agoI don't see why it would be a worrisome monopoly. OpenAI just provides the interface.
- ktta 4y agoI don't get what you mean. All LLMs are not made equal, and nothing comes close to GPT-4 AFAIK. Or are you talking about MSFT providing the compute power and not actually OpenAI? If so I don't think that makes a difference.
- siva7 4y agoIt's not the fault of OpenAI that Google/Meta hid their shiny AI product so long in the basement and i trust Sam in this matter much more than Sundar or Mark to not abuse the power.
- mort96 4y agoWhat are you trying to say? That it's not a worrying monopoly because it's not OpenAI's fault? How does that make sense?
- ben_w 4y agoI think that's a reasonable grounds to make the claim it's not a worrying monopoly. Also, OpenAI doesn't appear to have any capacity to stop other people doing LLMs. And it's only been a few months since people went from normal people totally ignoring GPT-3 to treating ChatGPT as a magic oracle, so other companies being surprised and running to catch up isn't (or shouldn't be) a surprise. And then there's the fact that nerds like *gestures at this site* us all, have already been getting leaked language models running on phones.

- baxtr 4y agoStill waiting for this message to appear soon: ChatGPT has decided it's down
- fwlr 4y agoI do wonder - if the AI takes over will it update status pages more promptly, or less promptly? And will it word the outage announcements more weaselly, or less weaselly?

- qikInNdOutReply 4y agoImagine a world, were things can be smart depending on the availability of the grid, meaning power, servers and software. On bad days, your house and car are retarded, on good days, you just never notice it.
- ben_w 4y agoAlso applies to humans: https://xkcd.com/903/ https://xkcd.com/903/
- Torkel 4y agoMouse over text: "Wikipedia trivia: if you take any article, click on the first link in the article text not in parentheses or italics, and then repeat, you will eventually end up at "Philosophy"." I find that this is no longer working. But I also remember it being reliably working at the time of first reading this. Anyone know when/why it "broke"?
- throw310822 4y agoJust tried it on a few entries and it still worked for me. Also cool, if you keep applying the same method after Philosophy, you end up in a couple of clicks in an infinite Entity -> Existence -> Entity loop.

- afandian 4y agoGraceful degredation sounds like the best case scenario, to be honest. Backup power for essentials when the grid goes out, applications that work offline, heating that keeps working without an Internet connection. It seems obvious but I'm not sure we're heading in that direction.

- jasfi 4y agoWorks for me.
- ponyous 4y agoOpen Dev tools > Network > Disable network cache & reload. Works for me.
- yanis_t 4y agoIs this new "Github down"?
- rvz 4y agoYes it is. Last time OpenAI went down was less than a month. [0] It seems with GitHub's greatest hits and its monthly downtime, we have learnt absolutely nothing. [0] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34958375 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34958375
- js8 4y agoI must be old, I still remember "Hotmail down".
- ar9av 4y agoThis reminds me of years okay when Microsoft would carry on about the Chinese were stealing, cooying, and reselling our software, the media was freaking out, it was supposed to be a huge threat to Democracy. I always wondered why they would develop software that was so easy to duplicate, there must have been a way to make it unduplicatable This reminds of that. "Don't let the peons play with ChatGPT, we must shame them not to use it, appeal to their higher instincts and make them realize this is too good for them! If the company's problems are too many stupid people jumping on board, then figure out a way to kick them off. Or is this what they are doing?
- jacknews 4y agouh oh, has it escaped?
- rambojohnson 4y agook, give it time lol
