As a seasoned tech analyst with over two decades of experience under my belt, I can’t help but feel a sense of deja vu when faced with news of yet another high-profile AI service experiencing outages – this time it’s ChatGPT’s turn. It seems like just yesterday (well, June or August to be precise) that we were all grappling with similar network issues.
Apologizing for any inconvenience, OpenAI admitted that their popular AI model, ChatGPT, encountered network issues immediately following its integration within Apple’s recent software upgrade. Over 200 million active users were affected.
Currently, we’re facing an interruption in service. We’ve pinpointed the problem and are actively working on a solution to resolve it as quickly as possible. According to OpenAI’s latest update on Dec 12, ChatGPT had already been restored in Australia at the time of publication.
The occurrence happened on the very day when ChatGPT got assimilated into the most recent iteration of Siri, Apple’s virtual assistant, across iPhone, iPad, and Mac devices.
OpenAI hasn’t confirmed whether the network outage was directly caused by the Apple integration.
CryptoMoon reached out for comment.
A large number of people trying to use ChatGPT’s API received a notice saying: “ChatGPT is temporarily offline” and that OpenAI has “diagnosed the problem” and is “actively working on a solution.
OpenAI’s video generation model Sora was also affected, the company noted.
According to the update from OpenAI, posted at 3:53 am UTC on December 12, both ChatGPT and Sora traffic have mostly returned to their usual levels.
Around 11:07 pm UTC on December 11th, it was reported that ChatGPT was experiencing network issues, as indicated by data from Downdetector.
Approximately 30 minutes after, there was a surge of 1,532 reports within a 15-minute span. Following this peak, the rate at which reports were coming in started to decrease.
Since June, there have been at least four instances when the ChatGPT network has faced outages, with previous occurrences happening in both June and August.
ChatGPT will simultaneously integrate with Apple’s AI technology (Apple Intelligence), enabling Siri to leverage ChatGPT for answering questions that are useful for specific queries such as inquiries about pictures and documents. This was announced by Apple on December 11th.
Users of Apple devices can now explore their surroundings and familiarize themselves with various places and objects by utilizing visual intelligence with ChatGPT.
The ChatGPT-integrated Apple Intelligence features are available on most iPhone 15s and above.
Meta experiences its own technical issues
During the outage on December 11, certain Facebook and Instagram users experienced restrictions with their accounts.
Approximately a few hours later at 10:26 PM UTC, Meta reported that they had addressed “almost all problems (99%) and were conducting final verifications.
