ChatGPT has a global failure, and user login and chat record loading functions are abnormal. ChatGPT, a subsidiary of OpenAI, has recently experienced a global service failure. Users cannot log in, register accounts, load historical chat records or send messages normally. The affected area covers the United States, Europe and other regions. The outage began at approximately 8 pm Eastern Time on August 19th. After affected users open ChatGPT, the page may stay on the sidebar loading animation interface, and error messages such as "Too many concurrent requests" may appear, making it impossible to continue sending messages. At the same time, the new user registration and account login functions of ChatGPT.com also experienced abnormalities, and some users were unable to access previously saved chat records. In addition to the ChatGPT main service, OpenAI's coding platform Codex is also affected by this failure. OpenAI subsequently confirmed the related issues through the official status page, stating that it had discovered that some users had encountered login abnormalities and was taking mitigation measures to restore services. This incident also affected the OpenAI API service. According to the OpenAI status page information, multiple API endpoints experienced abnormalities, affecting developers' ability to call related artificial intelligence services. As of around 8:15 p.m. Eastern Time, OpenAI confirmed that the outage was still ongoing and said that the engineering team was dealing with related issues. This large-scale service outage once again highlights the importance of AI infrastructure stability. As generative AI tools such as ChatGPT gradually become core services in the development process of individual users and enterprises, platform availability, failure response and system resilience will become important indicators for the competition of AI service providers. via AI News (author: AI Base)
